Automotive Supplier Finder (ASF) is the largest automotive industry specific supplier finder service designed and developed around our automotive database, containing details on over 9,000 companies and 3,000 product classifications. ASF allows buyers to issue requests for quotations (RFQ) and requests for information (RFI) through the system.

A single source, pro-active matching service unrivalled in both its depth and scope, matches buyers to suppliers’ base on criteria defined by the buyer, e.g. product, location, price, quality standards and capabilities. ASF does not exclude any reputable company whether large or small manufacturers or an SME.

There are hundreds of registered buyers including some major vehicle manufacturers and tier one suppliers sourcing products and services through the ASF service - numbers are increasing on a daily basis.

Joining the Database as a Supplier

Our service matches buyers to suppliers based on capabilities rather than marketing budgets which makes our service a good place to ensure your business capabilities are recognised amongst industry purchasing professionals. The database (Motor Industry Directory (MID)) covers all aspects of the industry:

  • Design and development of vehicles
  • Components
  • Production
  • After sales
  • Servicing
  • IT
  • Disposal and recycling

All companies in the database receive an MID entry. When you register you will be asked to complete a short form to confirm your company capabilities so that you can be accurately matched to buyers.

When you register your business as a supplier with ASF you will be automatically awarded a free MID entry which will be available online at www.autosupplierfinder.com for buyers to view and request information and quotations through the system.

During this one month trial you will also be able to respond to requests from buyers absolutely FREE! For more information please email nikki@autosupplierfinder.com
