Rental World/Backshop, Uniform Gallery

Rental World/Backshop, Uniform Gallery is an amazing initiative at the SIA Show because it allows us to show our dedication to the rental business in a professional way, and amongst all other brands’ rental products so potential customers get a clear and concise overview of what the market has to offer. In our opinion the rental business is one of the core initiatives in attracting new customers and retaining them to snowboarding, and this exhibit is a great way to spread this message. - Lucien Vink, Product Manager, Flow Snowboarding

The Rental World/Backshop, Uniform Gallery space combined focusing on the specialty backshop and rental shop. The venue created exclusive to backshop and rental helped educate buyers on the "how to" for tools and products featuring products to make your customers’ experience in the shop and on the hill a great one.

As they say, it’s all about “Service, Service, Service”. The Backshop section offered a preview of the latest in backshop tools and tuning to assure your customers have the best tuned equipment.

The Rental World portion highlighted the innovations and technologies in rental equipment and accessories helping our specialty shops get a lead in this important customer return market.

Uniform Gallery highlighted what’s new in uniforms to make sure the best impressions are made to your customers.

Rental World/Backshop, Uniform Gallery is truly the industry’s most important intro center for a first showing the coming Rental Technology along with backshop and uniforms. It gives buyers a chance to compare, side by side, all the new equipment and makes for a great central home base for rental buyers and venders. Combined with the SAM buyers guide, it makes for a great resource before and after a visit to the manufacturers booths on the main SIA floor and helps simplify the decision making process. - Bill Irwin, Sales Manager, Alpina/Elan Sports
