Taipei International Auto Parts & Accessories Show
TOP Procurement Venue in Asia Multiple records for scale and number of buyers.
"Taipei International Auto Parts & Accessories Show (Taipei AMPA)" the largest and most professional auto parts show in Asia ended on a successful note at Taipei World Trade Center NANGANG Exhibition Hall from April 9th 2008 to April 12th 2008. With a bigger scale than ever, Taipei AMPA 2008 attracted a record-breaking number of buyers and exhibitors during the four-day event. Altogether there were 937 exhibitors who used 2,494 booths, including 77 overseas companies from 16 countries. The number of exhibitors at Taipei AMPA increased by 14% comparing to the number of the previous year with a booth occupancy rate growing by 30%. The relocation to the newly built venue had solved the long-term insufficiency of exhibition space.
Taipei AMPA has also welcomed a record number of international buyers. The number of international buyers has reached 5,161 with 23% increase and the number of domestic visitors has also reached 46,315 with 18% increase. Many important figures from the world-renowned companies, such as BMW, FIAT, and PSA PEUGEOT CITRON, are expected to participate in this four-day event. The visitors commonly agreed that Taipei AMPA should be one of the world’s leading auto parts and accessories procurement platforms.
Taipei AMPA 2008 held in conjunction with AutoTronics Taipei and Motorcycle Taiwan for the first time. To create great opportunities for business, Taipei AMPA 2008 held numerous events starting with Taiwan Automotive Int’l Forum, Industry Workshop and Seminars. Exhibitors and international visitors made use of this perfect platform to acknowledge the latest technologies and exchange the information of the global market.
Rolling Towards a Green Future!
The 25th Taipei AMPA and the 4th AutoTronics Taipei will be launched on a grand scale at Taipei World Trade Center NANGANG Exhibition Hall from April 14th 2009 to April 17th, 2009. Despite the pessimistic atmosphere among the global economy, Taipei AMPA still attracted Key players in the auto parts & accessories industry like TYC BROTHER, DEPO, EAGLE EYES, HU LANE, HOTA, LUCKY CHAIN, LIH YANN, SONAR, TONG HONG, GORDON, HSIEH LURN, and JUST. 1,100 exhibitors have signed up to use 2,600 booths.
The two shows feature “green energy and eco-friendly technology.” To provide visitors more accesses to the green auto parts and automobile electronics, TAITRA has organized multiple events feature “energy-saving and carbon-reducing products.” To initiate the real practice, the Innovation Awards of Auto Parts & Accessories and Automobile Electronics will focus on the energy-saving and carbon-reducing functions of the newly developed eco-friendly products to encourage the exhibitors to innovate new technologies with a “green” concept.
TAITRA will utilize the new trade incentive program sponsored by the Ministry of Economic Affairs to invite and subsidize more buyers from the emerging markets such as India, Eastern Europe, South America and Middle East, to visit the show in order to counterbalance the impacts from the sluggish American and Western European markets. More efforts will be devoted to inviting the buyers from Mainland China in light of the opportunities arising from the direct cross-strait flights. The organizer, TAITRA, is going to arrange One-on-One Procurement Meetings to open more opportunities for the exhibitors and the visitors to achieve valid business transactions.
With the high competitiveness and the precise quality control of Taiwan’s auto parts products under the professional assistance from TAITRA’s trade shows, we believe that Taipei AMPA will pull the auto parts and accessories industry in Taiwan through the global economic downturn to set a new milestone in its 25th anniversary.
