As a trade journalist covering the automotive aftermarket, the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) is our Super Bowl, and it takes place in late October/early November every year in Las Vegas, said Shop Owner Editor Josh Cable.
The expansion will take place on Level 1 of the Sands Expo and will include moving the Tool and Equipment section, the Mobile Heat Transfer/Heating/Air Conditioning section and Mobility Garage to Repair Shop HQ.
The session, “What Drives You? Women Leaders Discuss Avenues to Innovation in the Aftermarket,” will take place Nov. 5, from 1:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m., on the Let’s Tech Stage at the Sands Expo.
AAPEX 2019 attendees can now download the free AAPEX mobile app to search the 2,500-plus exhibiting companies, bookmark the ones to visit and view their booth location on an event map.
AAPEX 2019 will host several events to educate and activate the automotive aftermarket industry in the fight for access to and control of vehicle data through the Your Car. Your Data. Your Choice. national consumer education campaign.
AAPEX 2019 is inviting pre-registered buyers to vote electronically for their favorite products in the New Product Showcase starting Monday, Oct. 21. Voting will end Monday, Oct. 28, and entries with the largest number of votes in each of nine categories will be awarded the Best New Product.
