SEMA Hall of Fame Now Accepting Nominations
The Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) is accepting nominations for its Hall of Fame program through March 17, the organization announced.
The award honors individuals in the automotive aftermarket who have enhanced the stature of the industry, the organization said. Inductees include visionaries, innovators, and leaders who have positively impacted what is now a $50.9 billion market. Nominees may be business leaders or contributors from any aftermarket segment or niche.
“The SEMA community is filled with men and women whose accomplishments are so great that the entire industry is changed for the better,” said SEMA Project Manager of Recognition Programs Chris Standifer. “The SEMA Hall of Fame honors these individuals for their outstanding contributions.
