The Akebono team presented visitors of their AAPEX booth in Las Vegas with trivia questions to test their knowledge of Akebono. The contest was designed to bring awareness to the companies 40-plus years of OEM, OES and aftermarket expertise in North America, and even challenge the company’s closest followers.

“A special thanks for all that visited our AAPEX 2021 booth and participated in our contest, it was great to be back in-person and congratulations to all of the winners, with prizes awarded totaling $2,000. Some of the questions were obviously true, but we were being a bit tricky because even the more obscure questions were also true,” Edward Gerhardt, marketing and data service manager for Akebono Brake Corporation said. “The contest was a great way for us to engage with the AAPEX attendees, and give everyone an opportunity to learn something about our past, present and future.”

The grand prize winner received a $500 reward card, a Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Die-Cast and an “Akebono prize pack.” The grand prize winner requested anonymity.
