An additional 30 companies have signed up for the SEMA Show since the
beginning of October, demonstrating a growing confidence in the
specialty-equipment industry’s future heading into 2010.
Though consumers and business leaders wait for definitive signs of
economic recovery, one message from the specialty-equipment industry is
clear: 2010 will be better.
Once made up mostly of American speed enthusiasts, the
specialty-equipment market is now a global passion, with enthusiasts
off-roading and drag racing from Beijing to Dubai. And nowhere is this
better illustrated than at the SEMA Show, where thousands of international buyers converge.
