From September 4 to 10, 2025, the fourth edition of the Intra-African Trade Fair (IATF) - Africa Auto Show will be held in Algiers, the capital of Algeria.
As the pioneering trade event for the African automotive industry, the exhibition has been committed to promoting trade development and the establishment of industrial partnerships under the framework of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) since its first launch in 2018. Organized by RX Africa, the exhibition is held every two years in multiple locations in different African countries, ensuring its wide accessibility and relevance on the African continent.
The exhibition attracts a diverse group of exhibitors and visitors from the automotive and supply industries, including commercial vehicle and passenger vehicle manufacturers, as well as electric vehicle and component suppliers. At the same time, important infrastructure projects and logistics services are also showcased at the exhibition.
One of the core features of the exhibition is the "Automotive Forum", where leading industry experts discuss global trends and develop strategies to strengthen regional supply chains. The exhibition also provides a platform for B2B and B2G exchanges between automakers, suppliers and governments, promoting partnerships between all parties.
The exhibition covers a wide range of industries, from raw materials and component manufacturing (including components such as batteries for electric vehicles) to vehicle production, component supply and distribution, and a variety of vehicle accessories, including electronics, safety equipment and maintenance services.
A series of highlight events, such as conferences and seminars, were also held during the exhibition to recognize innovation and outstanding achievements within the industry. As part of a series of events touring Africa, IATF provides various host cities and countries with the opportunity to position themselves as key players in the global automotive market.
For visitors and exhibitors, each venue provides convenient access through excellent infrastructure and transportation connections. Each location has been carefully selected to maximize participation and interactivity, making IATF one of the indispensable events in the global automotive industry calendar.
The holding of IATF - African Auto Show not only provides a stage for the African automotive industry to showcase its strength and potential, but also creates an important opportunity for global automotive industry players to gain a deeper understanding of the African market and seek cooperation opportunities. As the African auto market continues to grow and mature, the importance of this exhibition will become increasingly prominent, and it is expected to continue to promote the upgrading and transformation of Africa's auto industry and inject new impetus into the economic development of the African continent.
