The equipment industry benefits from in-person events and hands-on experiences, allowing buyers, contractors, and rental companies to make informed decisions. Merlo America will head to seven events across a span of just five months. From the vast agricultural fields of Georgia and California to the construction-focused halls of Las Vegas and the rental industry gathering in New Orleans, the company has a full calendar of events lined up through February 2027.

Where you can find Merlo America this trade show season 

First up is the Sunbelt AG Expo, taking place October 20 to 22 in Moultrie, Georgia. The Sunbelt AG Expo is a major meeting point for the agricultural community; the show offers an opportunity to see how versatile telehandlers can fit into the day-to-day demands of farming operations.

"Agriculture is a great example of where versatility really matters. Customers need equipment that can adapt with ease as the day changes. Being at Sunbelt will give us the chance to show exactly what a Merlo machine can bring to those everyday tasks and, just as importantly, hear directly from the people doing the work," said Jacob Sherman, territory business manager at Merlo America.

Then in November, Merlo America will head south for TCI Expo, taking place November 12 to 14 in Florida. At the event, Merlo will connect with professionals in the tree care industry, a sector where manoeuvrability, reach and the ability to take on a variety of material-handling tasks can be particularly valuable.

"Trade shows are an important part of staying connected to the industry. With a busy calendar still ahead of us in 2026, we're looking forward to spending time with customers and dealers and getting a better sense of what's happening in their businesses. Those conversations help shape where we go next, and make these events an important part of our year," said Jon Stephenson, Sales Director at Merlo America.

The calendar picks up again in January with World of Concrete, running January 19 to 21 in Las Vegas. Merlo America will exhibit at the show, meeting construction professionals from across the country and showcasing its approach to material handling on the job site.

Just days later, the team will be in Orlando for the AED Summit, taking place January 25-27 at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort, an opportunity to connect with equipment dealers and other industry leaders. 

February brings two more major stops. World Ag Expo, held February 9 to 11 in Tulare, California, will see Merlo America exhibiting once again, this time in front of one of the largest agricultural audiences in the country. From there, the team will head to New Orleans for the ARA Show, February 14 to 16, where Merlo will exhibit for professionals from the equipment rental industry.

"What's exciting about this event lineup is the range of people we'll be able to meet. The applications may be different from agriculture to construction to rental, but the need for equipment that is adaptable and reliable is consistent. These shows give us a chance to demonstrate that versatility and learn from the people using the machines," said Richard Cordero, sales director at Merlo America.

The range of events reflects the broad range of applications for Merlo's telehandlers. Agriculture, construction, landscaping, tree care, and rental may each have their own requirements, but the conversations at these shows tend to come back to the same question: how can equipment do more?

For Merlo America, industry events provide a chance to demonstrate the versatility of its equipment across different applications. "The jobs may look different from one industry to the next, but everyone wants equipment they can rely on and adapt to the job at hand. That's what we want people to experience when they come and see Merlo for themselves," said Jerry Donahue, territory business manager at Merlo America.

With seven events packed into five months, Merlo America looks forward to meeting customers and industry professionals across the country and bringing its equipment directly to the markets it serves. Whether you're heading to an agricultural show, a construction event, or one of the major gatherings for the rental and landscaping industries, keep an eye out for the Merlo America team.
