ECI ‘greatly encouraged' by Tyrexpo India, confirms Chennai 2015

The organisers of last week’s Tyrexpo India 2013 exhibition (9-11 July) have confirmed their plans to return to Chennai in July 2015. ECI International managing director Paul Farrant, says: “This was our second exhibition in India and we were greatly encouraged by the reaction received from both exhibitors and visitors. There is enormous potential in the tyre sector and we are very confident that the show will continue to grow and develop into a significant event for the tyre and equipment aftermarket.”

Farrant’s confidence is backed up by the announcement of dates for the event to return to the Chennai Trade Centre from 7–9 July, 2015. Both halls one and two have been booked in order to allow for the show’s anticipated expansion.

ECI says exhibitor and visitor numbers increased 11 per cent against the first exhibition in 2011 and were consistent with expectations, especially taking local market conditions into account. The organiser expressed particular pleasure in the international pulling power of the show, bringing important export markets within reach of Indian producers. Tyrexpo India 2013 drew visitors from 67 countries to Chennai, representing the majority of global tyre-buying economies.
