Dealer Associations Vote To Merge

Membership of the following dealer associations voted overwhelmingly in favor of moving forward with a merger to form the new North American Equipment Dealers Association (NAEDA).

  • Midwest-SouthEastern Equipment Dealers Association (MSEDA)
  • United Equipment Dealers Association (UEDA)
  • Western Equipment Dealers Association (WEDA)
  • Equipment Dealers Association (EDA)

The member vote was the final step in the merger process to create the new association of equipment dealers.

“We appreciate the overwhelming level of support that we have been given by our members,” says Tom Rosztoczy, Stotz Equipment, Chair of the Long-Range Planning Group. “Now that our members have ratified the merger resolutions, we will start with our transition plan and consolidating our resources—taking the best of all four organizations to enhance our value proposition to dealers.

The effective date of the merger is projected for July 1, 2022.

The newly formed North American Equipment Dealers Assn. will continue to represent dealers on a national basis with manufacturer relations and in federal government affairs in Ottawa and Washington, D.C. NAEDA will also continue to represent dealers in their 24 U.S. state capitols and state regulatory issues of the states involved in the merger, as well as in nine Canadian provinces.
