The 2021 Automotive Communications Awards were announced during the Women in Auto Care Awards ceremony at AAPEX to celebrate the marketing achievements in both business-to-business and business-to-consumer markets of the auto care industry.

With 125 total entries, this year saw fierce competition for a chance to take home one of 30 awards presented in Las Vegas.

The Automotive Communications Awards annually recognizes companies and agencies that provide automotive information to consumers and trade professionals through outstanding advertising, marketing, merchandising and effective public relations. The award submissions are judged and winners determined by volunteer members of the Auto Care Association Marketing and Communications Committee and the Automotive Communications Council (ACC).

“The Women in Auto Care Automotive Communications Awards are really special, because not only do they recognize and reward our industry’s best marketers, but the awards also give back to the industry through scholarship dollars.” said Jacki Lutz, executive committee administrator, Women in Auto Care. “Congratulations to all of the winners this year. These submissions are judged by our industry’s greatest marketers, so you should really feel extra proud that you were awarded by your industry peers.”

A portion of the proceeds from award submissions goes toward the Women in Auto Care Scholarship program, which annually awards both cash and tool scholarships to young women enrolled in post-secondary automotive programs.
