Automechanika Dubai trade exhibition for the automotive aftermarket from November 22 to 24

The largest international trade exhibition for the automotive aftermarket industry,  in the wider Middle East, Automechanika Dubai, is preparing to bring the industry’s biggest players to Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) starting tomorrow on November 22 and until November 24, for three days of networking and making connections. Opportunities on offer include unparalleled access to decision makers and insights from industry insiders, in addition to discovering the latest innovations and solutions.

Automechanika Dubai 2022 will bring together 1,145 exhibitors from 53 countries, who are eager to be part of the Middle East market. The exhibitors will showcase the full range of products and services for the automotive aftermarket industry including Tires & Batteries; Parts & Components; Electronics & Systems; Repair & Maintenance; Accessories & Customising, and finally Car Wash, Care & Reconditioning. A significant number of companies based in the UAE are eager to connect with new partners both locally and further afield. These include Juma Al Majid Est, Dynatrade, Central Trading Company, New East General Trading and Al Shamali Auto Parts Group, as well as local industry heavyweight Emarat.

An influx of expatriates is expected to drive increasing vehicle numbers on the road in the UAE and, therefore, its aftermarket demand, while the country has the GCC’s fastest EV adoption with an estimated 2 per cent of its vehicle fleet being electric in the next three years. Other regional opportunities identified in the report include high demand in Saudi Arabia driven by an increase in female drivers, the Kingdom’s Vision 2030, and its plans for developing tourism, manufacturing, and infrastructure, while the market in Qatar will benefit from increased fleet sales to service November’s FIFA 2022 World Cup, driving sales of lubricants, batteries, tires, and car washes. Automechanika Dubai, because of these opportunities, is also attracting exhibitors from abroad, keen to be part of this burgeoning Middle East market. The exhibition will include more than 20 dedicated country pavilions, including some who are attending for the first time, such as pavilions from Morocco and Indonesia.

Other features at the exhibition include the Automechanika Academy, which will provide attendees with the opportunity to interact with their peers, hear from industry leaders in a selection of technical lectures and panel discussions, to learn about the latest trends and discover innovations. Then there is the Modern Workshop, where garage and workshop professionals can enhance their knowledge by taking part in training programmes, workshops and live presentations that will showcase the most modern, latest and innovative solutions dedicated to this sector. Moreover, the Automechanika Dubai Awards, taking place on the morning of November 23 at the Dubai World Trade Centre, will recognise people, businesses, and products across the MENA region for their performance, customer service, sustainability, safety initiatives, and accomplishments.
