Attendees asked, and Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week (HDAW) organizers listened, says co-chair Michael Callison, president and CEO of Midwest Wheel Companies.
He says a lot of HDAW 2024, Jan. 22-25 in Grapevine, Texas, will be familiar to returning heavy-duty aftermarket leaders, but there are some changes. For instance, this year drops Service Opportunity and Learning Day (SOLD!) and adds more time for one-one-one meetings.

More than 1,900 openings, in fact, as well as time set aside for unscheduled meetings.
“These meetings help propel valuable dialogue on the latest product innovations and collaborative strategies, driving our industry forward,” says Nicole Oreskovic, the other co-chair of HDAW 2024 and the vice president of sales and marketing at Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems.
Suppliers and distributors are matched for the meetings using a software program, and delegates will also have time to manually request meetings to make the most of their time.
