APRA’s European Division Holds Meeting in Kiev

March 16, 2009

CHANTILLY, VIRGINIA – Central and Eastern Europe is the European region with the highest growth potential for car and light commercial vehicle sales. As a result, the need for vehicle services will also grow, and the use of remanufactured automotive and truck products will quickly become a viable repair option for many consumers.

The Automotive Parts Remanufacturers Association (APRA) recognized this trend several years ago and organized two meetings and exhibitions in the region: one in Prague and one in Warsaw. To continue this momentum, APRA will hold its first meeting in Ukraine. The meeting will take place on May 27, 2009, during the Kiev International Motor Show.

APRA invites all current and future remanufacturers and their suppliers to this free meeting to take advantage of this unique opportunity to network and engage in vital dialogues on issues affecting the remanufacturing industry in Central and Eastern Europe. Remanufacturers will find ideas that will drive their business forward.

The Kiev International Motor Show, SIA 2009 will be located at the International Exhibition Center (IEC). The exhibition will be open from May 26 - 31, 2009. For more information on the show, please visit www.sia-motorshow.com.ua

The APRA meeting and cocktail reception on May 27th, will be held at Hotel Adria (Inside Tourist Hotel) 2, R. Okipna, Kiev. The meeting will start at 5:30 pm and finish at 7:30 pm. APRA would like to thank the following companies for sponsoring this important meeting: ERA S.p.A. (Italy), M J & Company (Poland) and IKA Industries (Germany).
