Kinsey’s Inc. celebrated another successful dealer show. This year’s event, which typically runs 3 days and is held at the Hershey Lodge in Hershey, Pennsylvania, was held virtually from Feb. 10 – March 3, 2021. Kinsey’s made the difficult decision to hold this year’s show virtually in light of the on-going COVID-19 travel restrictions and the restrictions on large, in-person group events and gatherings.
The expanded virtual show offered dealers exclusive deals, great savings, and amazing giveaways throughout the show. This year’s dealer attendees saved up to 40% off everyday prices. The show featured new and exciting products from hundreds of industry-leading brands, with products ranging from a variety of categories including archery, firearms, ammo and accessories.
The classic, high-profile excitement portion of KDS21 ran from February 24 through February, 26 and included three amazing Hot Shows, vendor and dealer interactions, and product giveaways. February 25 and 26 featured the highly anticipated four livestream giveaway events that featured 42 vendor products. In total, more than 40 dealers walked away with more than $18,000 in total prize giveaways.
The main Kinsey’s Dealer Show Grand Prize Giveaway was held February 26. Three lucky dealers walked away with three grand prize packages.
Grand Prize Giveaway Winners:
- $20,000 Shop Renovation — Courtney Archery
- Paid Hunt for Four — Bald Hills Archery
- $1,500 Kinsey's Credit — WBT Outdoor Enterprises
Kelsey Heisey, Kinsey’s Dealer Show Coordinator, said, “Although KDS21 was virtual and we missed seeing our dealer and vendor partners in person, we’re glad to have brought the same value and excitement to our dealers this year. The Kinsey’s team learned a lot this year through the new platform, and we look forward to bringing that together for a better physical show in 2022.”
FYI: Next year’s Kinsey’s dealer show will return to Hershey, Pennsylvania, Feb. 24 – Feb. 27, 2022.
