Dallas, TX – March 30, 2009 – Consumer Electronics Expo 2009 will be held at the Embassy Suites Dallas-Frisco Hotel, Convention Center & Spa in Frisco, Texas. The show offers dealers information-critical seminars and training sessions, access to factory representatives, special show prices, and an exhibition of the newest innovations and top brands from over 75 leading manufacturers of home and mobile electronics products. According to Katye McGregor, Manager of the CEE 2009 and Director of The EDGE Distributors Group, more than 600 dealers are expected to attend.
CEE 2009 is hosted by The EDGE Distributors Group member Electronic Lane along with Electronic Lane Mobile, Sunbelt Associates & Distributing and Southwest Electronix. In addition to last year’s returning co-sponsors — ERA Marketing, Lesco Distributing, and PCI — this year distributors Elite Marketing and Integrators Depot join the roster.
“For those dealers who can’t get to national tradeshows either due to project commitments or economic pressures, CEE 2009 represents a great opportunity to catch-up on the latest technologies and meet the many manufacturer representatives and local-area suppliers,”? said McGregor.
Show management has secured a block of rooms for attendees at the Embassy Suites at a rate of $129 per night, which includes a fully cooked breakfast and an evening reception. Rooms are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Dealers planning on attending should register today at
