ORLANDO, Fla. — Industry Summit will once again play host to a ceremony honoring the winners of the 2018 Dealers’ Choice Awards, presented by Auto Dealer Today. This year’s event will be held Oct. 8–10 at the Caribe Royale Orlando in Orlando, Fla., and the ceremony will follow F&I and Showroom Pacesetter and Dealer of the Year awards, which begins at 5:15 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 10.

“The DCAs have become a highlight of the Industry Summit schedule, and with good reason: It’s the culmination of years — sometimes decades — of hard work and dedication to quality of product and customer service,” said David Gesualdo, show chair and publisher of Auto Dealer Today and F&I and Showroom.

The Dealers’ Choice Awards are based on a survey open only to dealers and dealership personnel throughout the month of May. Voters are asked to write in the name of their vendor, supplier, or finance source in at least five of 34 categories and rate them in terms of product quality and value, customer service, and whether they would recommend each company to another dealer.

More information about Industry Summit 2018 is available at the event’s website. To discuss sponsorship and exhibition opportunities, contact David Gesualdo at (727) 947-4027 or via email.
