Moncton RV Show
RV Facts and Stats
A survey conducted by the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) found that 45% of RV owners are considering purchasing another RV this year because they appreciate the value they get compared to the more traditional vacations.
Alana Fontaine, spokesperson for Go RVing Canada, said RV shows across the country this year have had record attendance and sales of RVs are, indeed, doing well. Statistics Canada recently reported sales of RVs rose 42.1 per cent between December 2008 and January 2009.
Canadians are becoming increasingly attracted to the vacation style as it often costs much less than other holidays and they will likely look for their next RV at a trade show.
Here are just a few of the benefits of exhibiting at the Moncton RV Show:
- What better way to build a relationship with potential clients than to look them in the eye and offer them a handshake, all the while displaying your RV line-up. No advertising in the world can offer that personal touch.

What the Industry is Saying
We had an excellent show in 2009; we sold the same amount of trailers as we did last year. In the Moncton area we have found that there hasn’t been much change to this years market from last year.
There were more inquiries to what we had for used stock at the dealership from show traffic.

The show has been great for us. We always leave the event with reservations for the next season and calls that come in for weeks later. The Moncton RV Show gives us the opportunity to offer that face-to-face personal touch with customers and potential new customers. It allows for people to put a face to the name when they are looking through brochures for a campground, and they can say I met them at the RV Show, we should give them a try.
