Vancouver, British Columbia — April 11, 2017 — Lordco Parts has concluded its 27th annual trade show. The event took place at the Pacific Coliseum & Agrodome, located at the Pacific National Exhibition in Vancouver, British Columbia.
It’s a big space, but it looks like Lordco needed every inch. Close to 16,000 people attended the show during its two-day run, making it the most well-attended show in Lordco’s history. The 16,000-plus crowd came to see some of Lordco’s many vendors, showcasing product from each of the company’s 11 divisions including Automotive, High Performance, Truck Accessories, RV/Marine/Outdoors, Import, Paint & Body, Tools, Equipment, Chemicals, Welding and Engine Parts.
“It was another great year for the Lordco tradeshow,” said CEO Doug Coates. “We want to thank the many vendors that travelled from all over North America to exhibit at our event, including a few that came all the way from Europe in promotion of our growing import division.”
This year’s show included a variety of exciting giveaways, including a number of high performance and accessory add-ons from Aries, Curt, Warn, Yakima, Rancho, Undercover Truck Bed Covers, Bushwacker and BrightSource HID. The grand prize was a 2017 Jeep Wrangler from Kleen-Flo.
“Kleen-Flo is a 100 percent Canadian owned business who’ve been around for 79 years. We are proud to partner with Lordco, who is another long-standing Canadian company, and it’s been a thrill to work on this campaign with its partners,” said Chris Osborne, Vice President of Kleen-Flo.
Rob Zimmer of Zimmer Wheaton Pontiac Buick GMC took home the Wrangler. James Aubit won a Richard Petty signed STP auto hood offered by Armorall and STP. A draw was also held for a Bosch’s Cube Reaction Race 500 bike, valued at $4,000, and won by Brian’s General Auto Service of Delta, BC.
The Lordco team used their smart phones throughout the show to give those unable to attend an inside peek into the event. You can check out more photos from the event at facebook.com/lordcoparts in the “Lordco Tradeshow 2017” album.
