Dealers – The Heart of NMEDA

From the smallest mom-n-pop to the largest dealer groups, over 325 US and Canadian auto mobility dealers belong to NMEDA – and there’s always room for more.

That said, NMEDA membership isn’t for everyone. Applicants must be fully committed to the highest standards of quality & safety, and QAP accreditation is required of every NMEDA dealer location.

So, why join NMEDA? Glad you asked. For starters, you’ll be joining a winning team of dedicated dealer members that together are responsible for the vast majority of wheelchair accessible vehicle sales in North America. Other member benefits include:

Advocacy – Who loves you, baby? Nobody does like NMEDA. We are the ONLY ones representing and protecting your industry before Congress, state legislatures, VA, NHTSA and other federal regulatory agencies.

Education – Get your knowledge on. We know you run a business in the real world, not some ivory tower. From our Conference & Expo to our online offerings, our learning is best-in-class.
