GIADA's annual convention brings together what it calls the largest IADA trade expo in the country, and the 2026 event was set at a new home: Chateau Elan, set among the vineyards of North Georgia. The schedule offered dealers three days of learning from some of the industry's top operators, completing their state-mandated continuing education on Friday, and connecting with vendors and fellow dealers.
As a Georgia company, we always look forward to this one. We'd love to talk about your dealership and show you what's new in our dealer management software and dealer websites.
