NPA prepares for Lakeland Grand Opening and auction

National Powersport Auctions (NPA) is starting the new year with its Lakeland Grand Opening event and auction. NPA will celebrate its latest expansion in Florida with the grand opening of its brand-new 142,000 square foot Lakeland facility on Jan. 25. The Grand Opening auction will take place, Thursday, Jan. 26.

Festivities will begin at noon with a catered lunch and warehouse tours. An NPA dealer education event will be held from 2:00-4:30 p.m. to report on the industry and give tips to powersports dealers about the auction process and how to maximize pre-owned inventory profits. The fun will continue afterward with yard games, prizes, a BBQ dinner, music and dancing. A ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place the following day, Jan. 26, at 8:45 a.m. before the NPA Lakeland auction at 9:00 a.m.

Powersports dealers, manufacturers, suppliers, financial service providers and media organizations are invited to RSVP to attend the NPA Lakeland Grand Opening by Friday, Jan. 20, online at https://www.npauctions.com/cp/npa-florida.

“The investment we made in our new, ground-up facility in Lakeland reinforces NPA as the place for dealers in the Florida region to buy and sell their pre-owned inventory throughout NPA’s nationwide network,” said Jim Woodruff, CEO, NPA. “We’re very excited about this coming year.”

The larger Florida operation paves the way for NPA to continue expanding its growing RV and marine remarketing business. The new NPA Lakeland building is twice as big as the former location, with over 10 acres of outdoor storage and a fully equipped boat and RV wash and inspection bay.

“We have a ton of inventory slated for the grand opening Lakeland auction on Jan. 26, including a record number of boats,” said Matt Amata, vice president of RV and Marine, NPA. “All inventory can be seen online at https://www.npauctions.com and in person from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. the day before the auction.

“I’m thrilled to be increasing our coverage and capabilities,” said Mark Clifford, eastern regional operations manager, NPA. “The NPA Lakeland Grand Opening will allow our customers and industry partners to see our state-of-art facility and meet the NPA staff.”
