In September, Automechanika Jakarta will debut to the Indonesian market, providing essential opportunities for trading, knowledge exchange, driving innovation, strategic partnerships, and cross‑border collaboration. By uniting diverse government agencies, associations, and businesses across the automotive supply chain, the show contributes to shaping the future of Indonesia’s automotive sector and the wider region. This also includes advocacy from leading industry association globally and from Indonesia and a programme facilitating industry growth to reinforce the platform’s role as a gateway to the region’s fastest growing automotive market.
Fuelling Indonesia’s role as a regional automotive powerhouse
Thus far, the fair has garnered strong endorsements from across the global and local supply chain. Leading Indonesian bodies taking a unified effort to elevate the domestic sector, include:
- AISMOLI – Indonesia Electric Motorcycle Industry Association
- APROBI – Indonesia Biofuel Producer Association
- GATOMI – Indonesian Automotive Aftermarket Association
- PAHAMI – Indonesian Car Accessories Entrepreneurs Association
- PERDIPPI – Association of Indonesian Lubricants Distributors, Importers and Producers
- PERIKLINDO – Indonesian Electric Vehicle Industry Association
GATOMI takes a led in standardising and advancing the aftermarket business by representing manufacturers of automotive accessories, spare parts, and components across Indonesia. Mr Ayong Jeo, Chief of GATOMI, said: “Automechanika is a major global exhibition with a strong presence in East and Southeast Asia including China, Malaysia, and Vietnam. The exhibition series debuting in Indonesia marks an important step for the country’s industry. As the market features a large share of used vehicles, the aftermarket sector remains a vital area with significant potential. Rapidly changing demands, like increased interest in safety products such as DVRs, highlight the need to stay updated. Automechanika Jakarta will provide a key platform for learning about the latest technology, innovations and global industry connections. We support the show and will invite our members to participate.”
The show also welcomes Astra Otoparts, Indonesia’s leading automotive component manufacturer and distributor, as a strategic partner. The group will showcase an extensive range of spare parts for both two‑wheelers and four-wheelers, including the renowned GS Astra and Aspira brands. Timur Raya Anugerah Damai, a prominent local automotive parts and components distributor, also joins as a gold sponsor, and presents a wide selection of parts and accessories for cars and industrial vehicles from Japan and other international markets.

Mr Masami Yamada, President of JAMTA, said: “Indonesia’s dynamic market offers strong growth potential, with Japanese brands firmly established in motorcycles and automobiles.
