Exhibition Overview:
AUTOFEST VENEZUELA is scheduled for October 23-25, 2026 at the Terraza del C.C.C.T in Caracas, Venezuela.
DUHUI will attend as an exhibitor at booth SC15.
The booth covers automotive chassis and engine parts, wheel hubs, clutches, tensioners, water pumps and other automotive bearings.
For distributors, importers and repair professionals, the show is a direct opportunity to review bearing coverage for Venezuela’s aging vehicle fleet.
DUHUI Bearing will exhibit at AUTOFEST VENEZUELA in Caracas on October 23-25, 2026, meeting distributors, parts importers and repair professionals at booth SC15 during the three-day automobile, motorcycle and parts exhibition. The Venezuelan aftermarket is rebuilding around an old vehicle fleet and a fragmented, import-led supply chain, so a national show in the capital gives bearing buyers a fixed point to compare categories against the vehicles actually in circulation.

Sources diverge on the current calendar. The event’s own website currently presents a Caracas staging dated April 24-26, 2026, while the dates recorded for DUHUI’s participation, and used throughout this article, are October 23-25, 2026. Buyers planning travel or shipment around the show should confirm the final schedule with the organizer.
What AUTOFEST VENEZUELA Is
AUTOFEST VENEZUELA is an automotive exhibition held in Caracas that brings vehicles, motorcycles, parts and lubricants together in one venue. The event’s own website describes it as a major vehicle exhibition in Venezuela featuring cars and automotive brands, while exhibitor-facing material for the Venezuela staging frames it as an international automobile, motorcycle and parts exhibition. Business reporting on the Caracas show has treated it as both an industry event and a family-oriented automotive gathering rather than a trade-only fair.
The exhibition has been staged repeatedly at the C.C.C.T complex in Caracas. A Caracas AutoFest staging in April 2026 featured vehicles, motorcycles and automotive-sector exhibitors, and an exhibitor event archive lists a Caracas AUTOFEST held September 20-22, 2023. Reported scale figures for recent Caracas stagings show the audience the show reaches:
- The October 2025 staging ran from October 24 to 26 on the CCCT terrace in Caracas and was reported to attract more than 20,000 attendees, more than 30 brands and more than 150 vehicles.
- The October 2024 staging ran from October 25 to 27 in the CCCT parking area, with organizers reporting 9,973 visitors.
- A 2024 report on the Caracas show cited more than 15,000 visitors at a preceding staging in the city.
Those figures describe the stagings they were published for; they are not estimates for October 2026.
DUHUI At Booth SC15
DUHUI’s confirmed role at AUTOFEST VENEZUELA is as an exhibitor, and the company will be reachable at booth SC15 for the duration of the show. The product scope DUHUI covers sits inside its automotive and industrial bearing range: automotive chassis and engine parts, automotive bearing components and their applications, wheel hubs, clutches, tensioners, water pumps and other automotive bearings, together with industrial bearings the company can supply.
Because the show mixes brand displays with parts and lubricant exhibitors, the booth works as a technical contact point as much as a display. Visitors can bring vehicle applications and current references to the stand and discuss them against the categories DUHUI manufactures.
Why Venezuela’s Aftermarket Matters For Bearings
Venezuela’s parts business runs on an aging fleet. An industry report placed the average age of the country’s vehicle fleet at 23-24 years in 2025, which keeps repair and replacement demand, rather than new-vehicle turnover, at the center of aftermarket purchasing. The vehicles being serviced are the vehicles that generate hub, clutch, tensioner and water pump bearing demand.
New-vehicle sales are recovering from a very low base. Trade association data reported by EFE put 2025 sales at 38,610 units, up 119.9% from 17,558 in 2024, with the sector projecting more than 50,000 units for 2026. Even under that projection, the installed fleet remains the dominant source of parts demand.
Supply is overwhelmingly import-based. Industry statements indicate that more than 90% of new vehicles arrive from abroad and that local assembly has largely ceased as an integrated production process, with 5,011 vehicles assembled in 2024 from fully imported inputs. That structure pushes importers, distributors and workshops to source bearing categories from outside the country, which is precisely the channel an international exhibition in Caracas serves.
Distribution is fragmented across many importers and brands. About 35,000 vehicles from nearly 40 brands and 200 models were commercialized in 2025, and marketplace analysis found Caracas accounted for roughly seven of every ten vehicle listings in a 2025 sample. The capital is therefore where national parts demand, brand variety and buyer traffic concentrate.
What Buyers Can Do With This Information
At a show where the circulating fleet matters more than new launches, the useful work for a buyer is coverage planning. Distributors, importers and workshop buyers visiting booth SC15 can act on concrete decisions:
- Match wheel hub bearings, clutch bearings, tensioner bearings and water pump bearings to the passenger cars and light commercial vehicles that dominate the aging fleet.
- Structure chassis and engine bearing ranges for a market that carries roughly 40 brands and 200 models, rather than optimising for a single brand.
- Separate industrial bearing demand from automotive demand where workshops and importers already serve both.
- Plan replacement-focused range depth for vehicles that stay in service for two decades or more.
These are evaluation and sourcing questions, and they are best answered with real applications and references in hand rather than from a catalog alone.
Meeting DUHUI In Caracas
DUHUI will be present at booth SC15 during AUTOFEST VENEZUELA, October 23-25, 2026, at the Terraza del C.C.C.T in Caracas, Venezuela. Distributors, importers, parts traders and repair professionals attending the show can bring vehicle applications, current part references and category gaps to the booth for discussion.
The October 2026 show puts DUHUI in front of the buyers who supply a capital city that concentrates most of the country’s vehicle listings, at a moment when rising vehicle sales and a two-decade-old fleet are pulling demand in different directions. For bearing buyers, the practical question coming out of Caracas is coverage, and booth SC15 is where that question can be worked through.
