Major Tyremakers to Attend CITExpo

The fifth China International Tire Expo, (CITExpo) is being held in Shanghai this September. Since the first exhibition was held in 2003 the CITExpo has grown rapidly and strengthened its position as one of Asia’s leading tyre events. The exhibition’s organisers, Reliable International Exhibition Services, report that this year’s upcoming event shows every sign of being another record breaking year. From the exhibition’s inception until 2006 the CITExpo was held solely in the west wing of the Shanghai Everbright Convention & Exhibition Center in the city centre, but this year the increased number of exhibitors has meant that the centre’s east hall has also been needed.

From the published floorplan it appears that numerous key manufacturers will be exhibiting their products, including Maxxis, one of China’s largest tyremakers, and Sibur-Russian Tires, Russia’s market leader. The CITExpo runs from September 12 to 14 2007, and is sponsored by Tyres & Accessories as a media partner.
