This significant gathering, which unites member companies from the Farm Equipment Manufacturers Association and the Equipment Marketing and Distribution Association (EMDA), has been a cornerstone event for over 70 years. While each Association maintains its own program and schedule, they come together for several shared events. Every session, function, reception, and refreshment break provides valuable opportunities to network with industry peers. In past years, more than 400 executives have attended to conduct business, learn, and enjoy themselves.
Whether you’re looking for innovative strategies, advanced education, networking opportunities, or insights into trends that will shape your company’s future, this convention is a must-attend for every farm equipment manufacturing professional. It’s your chance to meet dozens of distributors from across the U.S. and beyond, all in one convenient location.
The Renaissance Dallas Addison Hotel offers easy access to both Dallas Love Field Airport and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. Located in the vibrant Addison area, the hotel places guests near premier shopping, dining, and entertainment options.
Visitors can explore nearby attractions such as Addison Circle Park, Galleria Dallas, Cavanaugh Flight Museum, and Vitruvian Park. The hotel is also a short drive from downtown Dallas, where guests can discover the Dallas Museum of Art, the Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza, the Dallas World Aquarium, and the lively Deep Ellum district.
