Why Do You Attend MATS?
“I attend MATS to stay up to date with the latest products in the van and reefer manufacturing industry. MATS is the only show I attend each year, it has everything needed to help improve my business.”
Why Do You Recommend MATS?
“MATS is the best place to buy parts and products. I needed to get a van quickly for my business, but due to the current shortage, it’s been hard. MATS provided me with an exhibitor that was able to build it a lot faster for me, and I would have never known of it if it wasn’t for this show.”
“At MATS, you really get to experience the entire trucking industry all at once. You get to see the newest products and see how companies are changing each year.”
Business Relationships:
“If it wasn’t for MATS, I wouldn’t be as successful in my business. The face to face interactions with exhibitors allow me to make informed business decisions to help my business. It’s the only show I go to.”
Networking:
“When we spec our vans out, we use suspension rows. At MATS, we always check out the Hendrickson and Holland booths and have built relationships with them over the years. We even end up running into a lot of our customers here at these booths. If you want to do business, this is the place to do it.”
More Attendee Spotlights
“MATS really gives you the opportunity to improve your business operations. After only one year of attending, we have already become dealers for Fass Fuel System and PDI. Getting these opportunities is only possible for us because of this show.”
“I have always been impressed by the products and demonstrations available at MATS. You can really find products that will make a difference for you here.”
“We’ve built everlasting relationships because of MATS. We’ve been able to form long lasting relationships with companies like Marvin Johnson & Associates and Brands Insurance that have allowed us to change and improve our entire infrastructure to improve efficiency.”
