Automechanika Brand with nine shows yet to come in 2022


Frankfurt am Main, 18 May 2022. With 13 events around the globe, #automechanika is the world’s most successful B2B trade fair brand. Trade fairs are finally permitted almost everywhere again, and the #automechanika brand is off to a strong start with no less than four events in June and five more already scheduled before the end of the year.

The very first #automechanika took place in Frankfurt in 1971. As the #automotive industry has become increasingly globalised, #automechanika has followed suit by continually adding new venues worldwide since the 1990s. #michaeljohannes, Brand Manager of #automechanika: “After more than two years of the pandemic and ongoing supply chain issues, visiting the #automechanika platforms is essential for anyone looking for global networking opportunities in the #automotive aftermarket sector. Leading companies and visionary first-movers use our trade fairs to showcase their new solutions, while experts come here to discuss the industry’s most pressing challenges. In future, #automechanika shows will increasingly focus on topics such as innovations and new technologies, alternative fuels, supply chain solutions and sustainability, as well as knowledge transfer.” 

Together with some 130 partners, supporters and leading associations from the #automotive aftermarket, #messefrankfurt now organises the #event in 13 countries. Every one of the 13 #automechanika trade fairs is tailored to the requirements of its region. Owing to the rotation of events, nine #automechanika shows (out of a total of 13) will be taking place in 2022. 

Four #automechanika shows in June 2022

Automechanika #istanbul (2-5 June) 
The trade fair year kicks off with the annual #automechanika #istanbul #event. When it was last held in in November 2021, #automechanika #istanbul drew 60,634 professional visitors and 652 exhibitors. Since debuting in 2001, the joint venture between #messefrankfurt and Hannover Fairs Turkey has become Turkey’s largest and most international trade fair. Thanks to Turkey’s position as the bridge between Europe and Asia, #automechanika #istanbul offers the #automotive industry a natural meeting place for four key regions: Eastern Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and the Black Sea region. 

Automechanika #johannesburg (7-10 June) 
The next #show to follow in June is #automechanika #johannesburg, South Africa’s leading international trade fair for the #automotive service industry. The #event, which was held for the first time in 2009, takes place once every two years, and will once again be accompanied by Futuroad Expo #johannesburg. Highlights of the #show include the presentation of the prestigious #automechanika Innovation Awards and the #automechanika Academy, both of which are familiar from the Frankfurt #event

Automechanika #astana (23-26 June) 
Next up is #automechanika #astana, which will be held in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan. It is the only exhibition for spare parts, #auto components, equipment and goods for car maintenance in Kazakhstan, Central Asia and the Caspian region. In the new economic realities, Kazakhstan is becoming the region’s hub and key entry point to countries of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) market in the face of trade supply disruptions. #automechanika #astana is the most recent addition to the trade fair family and made its debut in 2019. 

Automechanika #hochiminhcity (29 June - 1 July) 
The last of the shows taking place in June is #automechanika #hochiminhcity, Vietnam’s leading regional fair for the #automotive service industry. The theme of this year’s #show is ‘Exhibition, Workshops and Entertainment’, and the fair will feature a series of unique industry events, including the ‘Automechanika Connected Exchange Conference’, ‘Match Up – a year-round business matching programme’, ‘Smart Factory and Industry 4.0 Conference’, ‘Auto Service Day’, ‘Auto Service & Maintenance Workshop’, ‘EMMA Vietnam – Car Audio and Modification Competition’ and more. The #event was launched in 2017. 

Five more #automechanika events in 2022 

INA PAACE #automechanika #mexico City (13-15 July) 
That is followed in July by INA PAACE #automechanika #mexico City, which has been a member of the trade fair family since 1999. Latin America’s key international trade #show for the #automotive aftermarket, OE manufacturing and service industry is a three-day #event showcasing a diverse range of global manufacturers and suppliers that highlights innovations across every segment – including the in-demand areas of EV, heavy duty and repair. Visitors can complement their experience with access to an educational programme featuring hands-on training, demonstrations and a newly created executive-level forum. 

Automechanika Frankfurt (13-17 September) 
In 2022, #automechanika Frankfurt will once again be the meeting place for the global industry. The brand family’s largest and most international platform covers the entire value chain of the #automotive aftermarket. This year’s trade fair is occupying eight exhibition halls and around 200,000 square metres of exhibition space. More than 80 percent of the exhibiting companies come from abroad. Seven out of ten visitors are from top management. 

The #event features numerous new themes and showcases, including ‘Innovation4Mobility’, a section dedicated to new mobility, alternative drive technologies, connectivity and digitalisation, as well as the #automechanika Academy with hands-on workshops, and the #automechanika Innovation Awards. There will be a particular focus on the topics of sustainability, remanufacturing and the supply chain.
