INTERNATIONAL BUYERS

Where Car Care Meets Community

It’s clear from AAPEX 2023 that there’s no substitute for face-to-face connections in the automotive aftermarket business, where attendance was back to record numbers. And with more than 2500 exhibitors, there’s more of everything for buyers to see and do.

Connect with Qualified International Buyers

Buyers from 127 countries were in attendance to find new products and innovations. International buyer registration was up 19% above 2022. Relative to 2022, we are saw the most significant gains in Asia, North America and Latin America.  

This year, AAPEX partnered with the U.S. Department of Commerce to co-organize an international delegation program. Through Trade Event Partnership Program (TEPP), AAPEX enlists the support of the U.S. Commercial Service’s network of offices in U.S. Embassies and Consulates worldwide to attract and recruit delegations of qualified international buyers to attend the show. Commercial specialists leading these delegations help international buyers locate equipment and solutions they are looking to purchase at the show and facilitate meetings onsite.

Through this partnership, AAPEX increased the number of international buyer delegations securing support in 30 countries, compared to 13 in 2022.
