Canada’s automotive industry will 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.

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

Market Growth & Industry Alignment

“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.

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

— Jasmeet Bakshi, Co-Founder, ExhibitIQ Media Inc.

Toronto: The Perfect Automotive Hub

“Toronto’s position as Canada’s largest automotive hub makes it the natural home for Autoteknik & 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.”

— Syed Ali Akbar, Co-Founder, ExhibitIQ Media Inc.

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.
