AUTOMEC HAS SOLD 90% OF ITS EXHIBITION SPACES AND IS PREPARING AN EDITION FULL OF CONTENT

The event, which takes place in April next year at São Paulo Expo, will bring together more than 1,500 brands. Automec University is one of the new features for 2025

With 90% of the exhibition spaces already sold at São Paulo Expo, the 16th edition of Automec, an international auto parts, equipment and services trade show, will bring together the main brands in replacement parts, maintenance, repair, accessories and automotive equipment for all types of vehicles. The event, which will take place between April 22 and 26, 2025, is organized by RX Brasil and will feature the participation of more than 1,500 brands, 10% more than in the last edition in 2023.

In addition to the growth in the number of exhibitors, the trade show will be held in an even larger space in the pavilions, with another 1,500 sqm of outdoor area added to the exhibition floor plan. The organizers expect to attract a public of over 90,000 visitors. According to Eduardo Marchetti, manager of Automec, the increase of the spaces, as well as the success in sales, demonstrate the importance of the trade show in the sector. “We are focused on delivering an even more complete event, with content and attractions for a highly qualified public and generating a lot of business for exhibitors, in addition to, of course, showcasing the latest innovations in the automotive aftermarket market,” he says.

Marchetti also points out that there are few exhibition spaces still available for sale. “As we expanded the outdoor area, we were able to create a few more opportunities for brands that want to be at the event, but are already running out,” he explains.

Exhibitors that are leaders in their segments

Over the five days, the event will bring together the main national and international players who will present a wide variety of products, services and technologies for the vehicle aftermarket and repair market.

According to Robinson Silva, marketing director at Bosch's Mobility Aftermarket division, the company expects to close deals and prospect new opportunities on the first day of the event. “Automec is an extremely well-established trade show in our segment, with the advantage of bringing together, in a single event, the largest number of participants and links in the chain – including manufacturers, distributors, partners, retailers, mechanics and influencers. It is a trade show that promotes business and networking, and always well organized," he explains.

Similarly, Mariana Marcondes, Cummins' replacement parts sales manager, says she is very optimistic about the 2025 edition of Automec. “I believe it will be another opportunity to strengthen ties with our partners and customers, in addition to generating new business opportunities and being an excellent stage for launches and business,” she notes.

More content and new features

At the largest trade show in the segment in Latin America, one of the great new features is Automec University, where courses and training will be offered with certifications from participating companies, SENAI and IQA - the Automotive Quality Institute. The attraction focuses on providing training and qualifications for professionals in the automotive repair chain who have direct contact with customers. This is a demand that is always present at the event, due to constant technological development in the sector.

In the outdoor area of the pavilions, test drives of combustion engine and electric vehicles will make their debut. “Visitors can get to know and experience the latest launches in the automotive industry, on an exclusive track. These interactive activities are highly desired by our public, as they provide knowledge together with the sensory aspect,” Marchetti explains.

Automec is held every two years by RX Brasil and is supported by the main entities in the sector: Sindipeças, Abipeças, Aliança, Andap, Anfape, Asdap, Conarem, Sicap, Sincopeças and Sindirepa.
