We are packing our bags. From 8 to 12 September 2026, the SimpleSpares team will be at Automechanika Frankfurt, the biggest gathering in the automotive aftermarket calendar, held at Messe Frankfurt in Germany.
Automechanika brings the whole industry under one roof, from the manufacturers who make the parts to the suppliers and distributors who move them around the world. For a business like ours, that makes it five days very well spent.
Why we go
The short answer is that it keeps us good at our job. Walking the halls means meeting the people behind the parts we sell, seeing what is new, and building the supplier relationships that let us offer you a strong range at a fair price. It is also where we keep an eye on where the aftermarket is heading, from parts supply and availability to the technology turning up in newer cars. All of that feeds straight back into what we stock and the service you get.
Come and say hello
If you are heading to Frankfurt too, we would love to meet you. Whether you are a customer, a supplier, or you just want to talk parts, get in touch before the show and we will find a time to sit down together. Some things are simply easier to sort face to face, and we are happy to make the trip count for you as well as for us.

Drop us a line and we will arrange a time to meet the team at the show.
After the show
We will bring back a few highlights once it wraps up, so keep an eye on the blog. And if you need a part in the meantime, the shop is open as always. The team on the road can still help if you get stuck, so nothing has to wait until we are home.
