Valmi Automotive to launch AUTOFIT® in the Ukraine

At the beginning of 2007, Valmi Automotive announced the launch of the European full-service workshop concept AUTOFIT® on the Ukrainian market. The main impulse to start the project was the overall negative situation with service provision by auto services. There is actually a critical shortage of knowledge among garages which would be needed to service present-day cars. What adds up to this is the absence of diagnostic equipment, quality software and a wide range of spare parts.

To launch AUTOFIT on the Ukrainian market, Valmi Automotive decided to take out a dedicated exhibition, the “Valmi Show 2007” on Saturday, 21 April 2007. More than 30 suppliers of spare parts will participate in this event.

More than 1,000 representatives of workshops from all the Ukraine will visit the “Valmi Show 2007”. In addition, Valmi Automotive will invite representatives of TEMOT, the Kiev city government, state and public organizations and mass media.

The general media partner of the event is the “Autoexpert” magazine. Further media partners are the:
• «Avtomaster» magazine
• «Modern auto repair garage» magazine
• «Auto&Service» magazine
• «Za Rulem» magazine
• «Automir» magazine


* Valmi is shareholder of Temot International Autoparts GmbH *
