2014 Tyrexpo Africa Dates Announced

Tyrexpo Africa, southern Africa’s tire and shop equipment exhibition, will return to the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg on March 4-6, 2014.

ECI International managing director Paul Farrant said, "We are delighted to confirm that Tyrexpo Africa will once again be returning to the Sandton Convention Centre, which has proved to be an excellent host venue for the show since it was first launched in 2006.

"In 2012 the exhibition continued to establish itself as a major event in the aftermarket calendar, attracting more exhibitors and visitors than ever before. With over 140 businesses on show and delegates from more than 70 African and international countries, Tyrexpo Africa has become a major business opportunity for the tire and equipment sector."

In 2014, the show will again feature a full range of products covering tires and equipment for passenger cars, trucks, mining, agricultural and industrial applications from leading domestic and international suppliers. The show is also important for retreaders and tire repairers servicing Africa’s extensive mining interests.
