What an incredible week at the 2026 Independent Home Improvement Conference!
Over the past three days, independent retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, service providers and industry leaders came together in Orlando to share ideas, strengthen relationships and invest in the future of the independent channel.
From inspiring main stage sessions and educational breakouts to hands-on learning in the Partner Pavilion, the Independents Celebration, the Independent Awards Gala and countless conversations in between, IHI 2026 was filled with valuable insights, new connections and memorable moments.
A heartfelt thank you to our attendees, speakers, exhibitors, sponsors, partners and volunteers who made this year's conference such a success. Your passion, expertise and commitment to independent retail are what make IHI unlike any other event.
The conversations don't stop here. Keep the momentum going, put what you've learned into action and start making plans to join us again.
Meet us in Marco for the 2027 Independent Home Improvement Conference on September 28-30 in Marco Island, Florida. We can't wait to see you there!
Thank you to our sponsors Orgill, Do it Best and True Value, Midwest Fastener, NHS Concept to Commerce, DIY CON and ECI Software Solutions for making this all possible!
