National Wireless Independent Dealer Association

Add Your Heading Text Here

Hello from #CES2025 in Las Vegas. It’s Day 4 of the show – travel day for us – as we head back to NWIDA HQ

For the past 3 days, we’ve been walking the floor (over 20,000 steps a day!) looking for new and cool products the dealers can put in their shops to increase their revenue. And – we’ve had some great meetings with new companies ready to join NWIDA and offer our members some fantastic discounts.

We’ll do a follow-up post with some details very soon  – not all the “i-s” are dotted or the “t-s” crossed, but we think 2025 will be the best year for your shop to join NWIDA. You will save THOUSANDS of dollars on the products and services you need to run your shop – and, as I mentioned above – some cool new products that will raise you above your competition.

So, look out for the follow-up post early next week. We need to finish packing and head to the airport.

Talk to you Monday from NJ!
