Autoteknik Canada to Bring the Automotive Industry Together at New Annual Trade Exhibition

TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA – Canada’s automotive industry is set to gain a new international business platform in 2027 with the launch of Autoteknik Canada, a B2B exhibition connecting original equipment (OE) suppliers, aftermarket manufacturers, technology providers, distributors, service professionals, and mobility innovators.

Adding further strength to the event, ExhibitIQ Media Inc. has partnered with MIE Group, a global exhibition organiser, to launch the Electric Mobility Show (EVS) Canada alongside Autoteknik Canada and TLB Expo Canada. Through this strategic collaboration, both organisations will combine their expertise in international trade exhibitions, industry networking, and market development to create a comprehensive platform covering automotive aftermarket solutions, electric vehicles, charging infrastructure, batteries, smart mobility, and clean transportation technologies.

MIE Group has established the Electric Mobility Show (EVS) as a recognised international B2B platform for the electric vehicle and sustainable mobility industry across markets including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kenya, and Morocco. Through this partnership, MIE Group and ExhibitIQ Media Inc. will leverage their global networks, industry expertise, and market knowledge to support the growth of Canada’s electric mobility ecosystem by connecting manufacturers, technology providers, investors, policymakers, and industry professionals while encouraging international trade, investment, and knowledge exchange.

“Our partnership with ExhibitIQ Media Inc. marks an exciting milestone in expanding the Electric Mobility Show to Canada. By combining our global exhibition expertise with Canada’s rapidly evolving automotive sector, we aim to create a world-class platform that connects industry leaders, drives innovation, and accelerates the future of sustainable mobility.”-David Wang, Chairman, MIE Group

Organised by ExhibitIQ Media Inc., Autoteknik Canada will take place from 9–11 June 2027 at The International Centre in Toronto, Canada, alongside TLB Expo Canada, creating a comprehensive marketplace covering automotive parts and components, garage and repair technologies, tires, lubricants, batteries, workshop solutions, and future mobility applications.

“Canada’s automotive aftermarket is a dynamic and growing sector, supported by 24.6 million vehicles on the road and a diverse network of distributors, repair businesses, dealers, fleets, and service providers.

The market reached USD 22.4 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 29.0 billion by 2032. As the industry continues to evolve, there is a growing need for an annual meeting point where the complete automotive aftermarket ecosystem can come together to exchange ideas, discover new solutions, and build stronger business relationships,” said Jasmeet Bakshi, Co-Founder, ExhibitIQ Media Inc.

“Autoteknik Canada has been developed to bridge this gap by connecting global and domestic suppliers with Canadian buyers, distributors, repair professionals, and industry organisations to accelerate business opportunities and industry collaboration.”

“Toronto’s position as Canada’s largest automotive hub makes it the natural home for Autoteknik and TLB Expo Canada. With its proximity to major manufacturers, distribution networks, dealers, and a strong community of automotive professionals, the city provides an ideal meeting point for the industry. Taking place in June 2027, the event will create a timely opportunity for businesses to discover new technologies, strengthen partnerships, and prepare for the next phase of growth,” said Syed Ali Akbar, Co-Founder, ExhibitIQ Media Inc.

“Canada’s collision repair sector continues to evolve with advances in vehicle technology, repair methods, and changing consumer expectations. Creating opportunities for the industry to connect with suppliers, technology providers, and solution partners is essential for continued growth. Autoteknik Canada represents an important opportunity to bring the broader automotive ecosystem together and support collaboration across the industry,” said Darryl Simmons, Publisher, Collision Repair Magazine.

“Canada’s aftermarket is entering one of the most significant periods of change in its history. New vehicle technologies, an evolving vehicle parc, and changing ownership demographics are transforming every corner of the industry,” said Andrew Ross, Publisher and Director of Content, CHAT Integrated Media Inc., publishers of Indie Garage and Jobber Nation, and producers of The Great Canadian Aftermarket Podcast.

“At a time when Canada is attracting increasing attention on the global automotive stage, Autoteknik Canada provides a made-in-Canada opportunity for every sector of the aftermarket to come together to do business, exchange ideas, develop skills, build relationships, and ensure the industry is prepared for whatever comes next.”

“Canada represents an exciting growth opportunity for European automotive suppliers. Through our partnership with Autoteknik Canada, we look forward to helping companies from Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg connect with Canadian buyers, distributors, and industry professionals,” said Krist’l Daelman, CEO, Exposervice.

“Korea has a globally recognised automotive manufacturing and aftermarket industry, with suppliers known for innovation, technology, and quality. Through our experience as a partner of the Korea Automotive Aftermarket Exhibition (KOAA Show), we understand the importance of creating international platforms that connect suppliers with new markets. Autoteknik Canada represents an exciting opportunity for Korean companies to showcase their solutions, build relationships with Canadian buyers, and explore growth opportunities in North America,” said Kim Jongkyung, CEO, AIN Global Foundation.

The exhibition will showcase solutions across key automotive aftermarket sectors, including automotive parts and components; workshop equipment, tools, and garage solutions; diagnostics, electronics, vehicle software, and connected technologies; batteries, energy storage, and power solutions; tires, lubricants, and vehicle fluids; vehicle paint, body repair, and refinishing; as well as automotive accessories, consumables, and service solutions.

Building on strong industry support and growing international interest, Autoteknik Canada is expected to bring together more than 250 exhibitors, welcome over 5,000 automotive professionals, and feature 25+ industry experts through conferences, educational sessions, and knowledge-sharing programmes. The event will connect suppliers, buyers, distributors, repair professionals, fleet operators, and industry leaders from Canada and around the world, helping businesses build partnerships, discover new technologies, and expand into new markets.
