The motor trade will be out in force at the forthcoming Auto Trade Awards, which takes place at Citywest Hotel, on Saturday Night, October 17.

The Irish Auto Trade Awards 2016, will acknowledge the high aftersales standards offered to Irish motorists, business owners of vans and trucks, and everyone that uses the services of car, van and heavy commercial workshops, parts suppliers, bodyshops, tyre centres and others in this great industry.

The Irish Auto Trade Awards covers practically every sector of the Irish auto aftermarket. This includes main dealership aftersales and also independent workshops (both of those covering the servicing and repairs from cars and vans through to trucks and buses); manufacturer and dealership parts suppliers; wholesale and retail motor factors; bodyshop/refinishers; body builders/converters; recovery operators; tyre manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers; manufacturer innovations; and other awards.
