Heavy Duty Aftermarket 2010 has registered a record high of 110 suppliers and 70 distributors for pre-scheduled, one-on-one meetings during the conference
. HDAW will be held Jan. 18-21 at The Mirage in Las Vegas.

During HDAW '09, distributor and supplier companies participated in 1,409 scheduled meetings, while the 2010 event expects over 1,700 meetings. One-on-one meeting participation is limited to suppliers that are members of one of the sponsoring organizations and have registered and reserved exhibit space at HDAW.

"We have had a great response for the one-on-one meetings this year, and are in the process of putting the requested matches together to get out to the distributors and suppliers by the end of December," said Dave Bell, co-chair. "We are anticipating a very well attended and successful conference again in 2010."

Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week is the largest North American gathering of the independent heavy-duty industry. More than 1,400 managers and executives from 17 countries - including distributors, manufacturers, service providers, educators and media - attended the 2009 conference in Orlando. An even larger group is expected for the 2010 event.

HDAW is presented by a joint operating committee composed of industry leaders from American Council of Frame and Alignment Specialists (ACOFAS), Commercial Vehicle Solutions Network (CVSN), Heavy Duty America (HDA), Heavy Duty Distribution Association (HDDA), Heavy Duty Manufacturers Association (HDMA), APRA's Heavy Duty Remanufacturing Group (HDRG), International Truck Parts Association (ITPA), Overseas Automotive Council (OAC), Power Heavy Duty, Service Specialists Association (SSA), Truck Pride, Truck Frame and Axle Repair Association (TARA) and Vipar Heavy Duty.
