Parts Unlimited Hosts Holiday Showcase at State-of-the-Art Reno Warehouse

The Parts Unlimited Dealer Showcase is a highlight of the Monster Energy Supercross and Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship each and every year with first-class events scheduled throughout the country for the thousands of Parts Unlimited dealers in the U.S.

While the on-track action is quiet with nearly every motorcycle racing series in its off-season, Parts Unlimited is still going strong and during the weekend of November 7-8 it took the opportunity to welcome all of its dealers to the company’s state-of-the-art distribution center in Reno, Nev. for the largest showcase of the year officially dubbed the “Parts Unlimited Holiday Showcase.”

The new Parts Unlimited distribution center in Reno is the company’s newest warehouse in the U.S. It has a foot print of 280,000 square-feet which incorporates over 1.1 million Stackable square feet. It features the latest technology in packaging and distribution to continue the highly-regarded Parts Unlimited reputation. (Courtesy Kinney Jones)
