Macedonia Takes Part in European Automotive Expo
Representatives of the Macedonian automotive components industry participated in the European Automotive Components (EAC) Expo in Stuttgart, Germany from June 22 – 25, 2010. Participation in the Expo helps Macedonian companies gain access to European automotive supply chains.
The primary exhibitor at the Macedonia Automotive Pavilion was the Automotive Cluster of Macedonia, representing 25 local companies. In addition, four individual automotive component producers participated - TCG Learnica, RUEN IT, TE-TE Plast and EIN SOF – presenting their own products and services to potential buyers.
“Participation at the EAC Fair last year proved to be very beneficial for the exhibiting companies and the Automotive Cluster of Macedonia,” said Vladimir Tevdov, Director of Automotive Cluster of Macedonia. “Continuity in participation at these fairs is important to successfully promote the Macedonian automotive component industry in global markets. This also builds the capacities of company members of the Automotive Cluster of Macedonia, and contributes to the overall growth of this industry.”
With support from the USAID Competitiveness Project, this is the second time there has been a Macedonia Automotive Pavilion at the EAC. Last year’s participants gained new clients and orders thanks to their exposure at the Expo.
