The ARMO Hot Products Showcase is a valuable opportunity for ARMO-member companies to put their product(s) in front of thousands of restoration consumers and enthusiasts at Spring Carlisle.

The Automotive Restoration Market Organization (ARMO) Hot Products Showcase is an exciting and valuable opportunity for ARMO-member companies to put their product(s) in front of 100,000 restoration enthusiasts at Spring Carlisle. Participation in the Showcase, open Thursday–Saturday, April 20–22, is included in ARMO membership.

For the cost of shipping their product(s) to the Carlisle Fairgrounds, benefits for participants will include:

  • Product(s) displayed in the ARMO Hot Products tent, which is located strategically in the center of the event grounds.
  • Professional product photos available for their own marketing use.
  • Product photos will be displayed in the ARMO booth at the SEMA Show and in a photo gallery on www.SEMA.org.

Those who are going to Carlisle can save the shipping cost by dropping off and picking up their products on-site.
