About Commercial Vehicle & Autonomous Summit

Commercial Vehicle & Autonomous Summit is an automotive conference taking place October 10–12, 2026 at Office des Foires et Expositions de Casablanca (OFEC) in Casablanca, Morocco. It runs for three days, opening on Saturday and closing on Monday. That is only 1 day away, so most planning deadlines have already passed; focus on travel, staffing and lead capture.

What to expect at Commercial Vehicle & Autonomous Summit

Automotive shows range from engineering-focused supplier events to aftermarket and dealer expos. Expect product-heavy displays, technical buyers and strong interest in new technology, electrification and service.

Over three days, traffic usually peaks on the first two days and thins out on the last one. The quieter final day is a good time for longer conversations, visiting other stands and meeting suppliers. Expect most visitors to be OEM and tier suppliers and their colleagues, often with a short list of suppliers they want to see.

Preparation tips for automotive shows

• Know whether the audience is OEM, aftermarket, dealer or consumer, and adjust your message for it.
• Arrange vehicle or large-part display logistics early, including fuel and battery rules for indoor halls.
• Bring part numbers, compatibility lists and distributor details for aftermarket buyers.

Booth tips for Commercial Vehicle & Autonomous Summit

• Put the product in visitors' hands or let them see it working; automotive buyers judge quality physically.
• Ask about volumes and current suppliers to size the opportunity quickly.
• Keep a technical expert available for engineering questions during peak hours.
• Walk the hall at Office des Foires et Expositions de Casablanca (OFEC) during move-in to see which entrances and aisles carry the most traffic, and set up your booth so it faces that flow.
• Plan shifts of three to four hours. Standing and talking for three days wears people out, and tired staff let good leads walk past.
• If you expect local buyers in Morocco, bring key material in the local language as well as English, and have prices ready in the local currency.
• Capture every conversation the moment it ends: scan the badge or card, add a one-line note about what the visitor needs, and rate the lead hot, warm or cold. Notes written that evening are already half forgotten.
