Exhibiting At Automechanika Dubai For Middle East & Africa Markets

Posted on Tuesday, January 16th, 2024

 

The Lodge Parts team enjoyed a very successful trade show at Automechanika Dubai 2023.

We met with good businesses from over the Middle East, Africa and nearby regions, and we look forward to building promising new relationships and continuing existing friendships.

Our stand was very busy every day and our team loved engaging with customers about OEM UK 4×4 Parts.

The Lodge Parts team plan to turn a fantastic trade show into a new period for our export business, with valuable benefits for customers.

Find out more about our approach to Middle East & Africa markets here (in Arabic), or more about our 4×4 parts offering here.

We look forward to exhibiting at future shows in this region.
