More than 6,000 attendees gathered for the annual Snap-on Franchisee Conference (SFC) at the Gaylord Palms Resort and Convention Center in Orlando, Fla. The three-day business conference provided franchisees the opportunity to learn about the latest in vehicle service product innovation and technology; as well as techniques for continuing to improve the profitability of their Snap-on Tools franchises. Over 2,500 Snap-on mobile tool distribution stores were represented at the event, held Aug. 19-21.
“This year’s conference was another tremendous success,” said Tom Kassouf, president of the Snap-on Tools Group. “In 2010, we celebrated our 90th anniversary at the SFC with record participation by our franchisees, and this year we, once again, set a record for the single largest gathering of Snap-on franchisees, associates and suppliers in our company’s history.
