Bapcor Drive Expo 2024

Bapcor Drive Expo 2024

Parts

The Bapcor Drive Expo was held over two days (14 and 15th June) at the Due Drop In Events Centre in Manakau.

It featured a good range of trade displays from Bapcors suppliers, a well patronised pop-up shop with some great deals on tools and equipment and a strong line up of educational seminars.

Martin Storey, Executive General Manager of Bapcor, commented, “Bapcor’s Drive Expo has once again reinforced that our supplier network maintains unwavering support to the New Zealand’s automotive aftermarket. The expertise available to the automotive trade over the two-day event was truly impressive, with seminars and one-on-one discussions proving invaluable to technicians, workshop owners, and the broader industry. They were all hungry for ongoing training and upskilling.  We were very proud to be able to present this event to our existing and potential customers. We look forward to being able to offer more events of this size and nature in the future.”

Motor Equipment News attended on the Saturday and there was a steady stream of attendees moving through the Expo and the seminar we attended on Brake Evolution put on by Alan Moore of Brembo Trade was well attended and informative.

There was a café area (and free coffee) for networking or taking a break.
