The car parts industry is made up of aftermarket parts and accessories, external body parts, mechanical parts, automotive tools, fitment tools, and more. Many parts are unique to a certain car make, model, location, or sometimes even a production date range. While car buyers can feel discouraged from buying auto parts online, this is slowly changing. Consumers, garages, and auto parts distributors no longer go to one shop to purchase products. Some go in person to a dealer or retailer; others turn to eBay, Amazon, or specialty sites for hard-to-find items. To compete in this environment, auto parts sellers need visibility into inventory, orders, and customer journeys across channels – all of which can be accomplished with B2B eCommerce software.
