Taiwan offers automobile industry solution during COVID-19 outbreak


Feb.21, 2020

The global COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted the global automobile industry supply chain, causing auto makers and their suppliers to curtail or cease production due to a lack of parts.  

Taiwan plays a crucial role in producing high-quality and diversified auto parts, and Taiwanese suppliers specialize in offering customized solutions to fit different needs. In 2019, Taiwan exported US$7 billion worth of auto products globally. 

TAITRA will hold the Taipei AMPA 3-in-1 tradeshow on April 15-18. The 3-in-1 event includes Taipei AMPA, Autotronics Taipei, and Motorcycle Taiwan. Ranked as one of the top 2 shows in Asia for automobile, motorcycle parts and accessories, it is one of the best business platforms in the global automobile supply chain. 

This year, Taipei AMPA will also introduce a new “Automobile Lighting” area where more than 100 exhibitors are to showcase their latest automobile lighting products. Visitors can meet Taiwanese suppliers in 1-on-1 Procurement Meetings and attend a variety of forums.
