Registration is underway for the Auto Care Association's 75th annual Aftermarket Warehouse Distributors Association (AWDA) Conference, Oct. 30 – 31, at The Venetian Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, according to an association press release. The AWDA Conference is an annual business event that brings together the premier companies of the industry for high-level, private, one-on-one business meetings.

The 2022 AWDA Conference will return to its traditional dates and offer its prescheduled business meetings on the Sunday and Monday prior to the start of the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) show, "allowing for focused, thoughtful dialogue among its participants," according to AWDA.

Founded in 1947, AWDA is the oldest organized group of warehouse distributors and their respective suppliers of parts, accessories, and other supplies for the motor vehicle aftermarket.

"Celebrating the 75th AWDA Conference is a monumental event, and the Auto Care Association is proud and honored to continue to bring this tradition to the industry," according to the release.

“Very few associations, let alone conferences, have lasted as long as AWDA’s,” said Larry Northup, executive director, AWDA. “The longevity of this event provides undeniable proof that AWDA’s formula of serious, high-level interaction between existing business partners continues to deliver tremendous value. The AWDA Conference is a highly valued and rewarding element of Industry Week and it is a privilege for Auto Care to be providing the 75th conference to the membership.”

All companies must register by Aug. 19, 2022, to participate in the AWDA one-on-one meetings.
