Race Sport Lighting partners with Trends Electronics in Canada

RINGWOOD, Ill. – October 22, 2021 -- Shortly after Race Sport Lighting launched their 2021 Canadian specific website, they are now partnering with Trends Electronics, Inc headquartered in Burnaby, British Columbia. Trends Electronics has a sales force located in each marketplace, from the West Coast to the East Coast and they will be hitting accounts hard in the next few months to get on board with Race Sport Lighting. Trends will also be stocking and promoting the Marine Sport Lighting line that is Race Sport’s fastest growing category over the last few years. Trends is well known for their success in getting behind the hottest categories, and with the best partners, it is no mistake that Race Sport Lighting fits their success mold in the Canadian marketplace.

“Trends Electronics Inc and our company have been methodically vetting the opportunity for a while now and now is the time to come in strong into Canada. Canada has some unique issues in their winter climates that Race Sport Lighting has solved years ago, and while some of the Canadian lighting companies still are struggling through. In the next twelve months, we are going to work closely with Trends to solve all of those problems with our All-in-One solution-based products that are going to make Canadian dealers very happy, more confident in lighting, and more profitable at the end of the day," said Steve Jergensen, Race Sport Lighting President.

“This exciting news just got out of the bag this week on a live 60-minute broadcast on CMA just this week and the recording can be viewed be clicking here. Race Sport Lighting got on the Canadian broadcast and clearly laid out the game plan to bring some of their new and exclusive patented technologies to Canadian dealers in conjunction with Trends Electronics Inc in the 12-volt marketplace. And there was definitely some excitement not only about the high-quality lighting offerings, but on all the value-added dealers tools and services available to the Canadian marketplace like vehicle fitment guide, B2B dealer portals, Sell sheet library, and a vast and amazing retail display program. Race Sport Lighting also discuss their RS University basic lighting training courses that will fit like a glove with Trends University training programs.”
