Car and Accessory Trader (CAT) is a monthly B2B magazine distributed to more than 17,000 professionals in the British automotive aftermarket.

First published in 1979, it's read by senior decision-makers at accessory retailers, parts suppliers and MOT-accredited independent garages.

It's widely regarded as the sector's premier source of news, opinion, research and analysis.

Its portfolio includes the yearly CAT Directory, a biennial product catalogue guide, and a host of one-off specials for trade events.

The CAT Awards, relaunched in 2006, recognises personal and business achievements in the automotive industry.
