In reaction to the escalating Covid-19 prevention and control measures being implemented by the Chinese government, Messe Frankfurt is rescheduling two of its mobility and logistics fairs in the country.
CAPAS Chengdu will move to 18–20 August 2022, instead of the original time slot 19–21 May 2022. The Auto Maintenance and Repair Expo (AMR) will be held in Tianjinm 23–26 March 2023, in place of 27–30 May 2022.
Stephan Buurma, member of the board of management of Messe Frankfurt Group, commented: “CAPAS and AMR are both benchmark business platforms for the automotive industry across Southwest China and the Jing-jin-ji region, respectively. Therefore, it is important that we continue to support the government’s direction in stemming the spread of Covid-19. Furthermore, the health and safety of our exhibitors, visitors and other participants are always our top priorities. And so, as a result of careful discussions with stakeholders, we’ve decided to reschedule both exhibitions to help maximise onsite experiences for all.”
In the upcoming months, the two fairs will carry on planning and preparing pre-show events and activities that aim to maintain market momentum ahead of the physical fairs.
Organisers say CAPAS will deliver online seminars and business matching, industry research, repair workshop visits and roadshows that offer more far-reaching and effective trading resources for players in the region.
Meanwhile, leading up to the 2023 show dates, AMR will continue to offer AMR Online business matching services and organise a range of industry activities.
