WINTER SPRINGS, FL, September 1, 2016 (Newswire.com) - The fifth annual Tennessee Tow Show opens September 8 at the Chattanooga Convention Center, promising to be a celebration-filled event in honor of the 100th anniversary of the tow truck.
Chattanooga is where E.W. Holmes invented the tow truck in 1916, launching a towing and recovery industry valued at over $6 billion in annual revenue and which employs tens of thousands of people across the United States.
