CHICAGO -

RoadDealer.com, an online platform that looks to help dealerships buy, sell and trade aged and wholesale vehicles between other stores, formed two new partnerships recently.

RoadDealer.com is now the exclusive auction alternative partner for the Chicago Auto Trade Association and the Auto Dealers Association of Mega Milwaukee.

Through its members-only website, RoadDealer.com’s database of inventory holds more than 17,000 vehicles ready for dealerships to buy from fellow dealerships, creating an online community of dealers.

Officials pointed out RoadDealer.com’s exclusive platform tries to eliminate auction fees by replacing it with one monthly fee.

“RoadDealer.com looks forward to building long lasting relationships with ADAMM, CATA and their dealers, and growing with them in the years to come,” RoadDealer.com president Jim Battista said.

With the addition of ADAMM and CATA, Battista believes RoadDealer.com has expanded its ability to solve inventory problems that many dealerships experience.

“This program was developed through personal experience of purchasing inventory for nine years,” he said. “The impact of traditional auction fees and transportation expenses motivated me to create a more efficient solution.

“RoadDealer.com has proven to be an ideal way to move inventory,” Battista went on to say. “Dealerships will find vehicles serviced and ready to move off the lot, while building great relationships with other dealers along the way.”

ADAMM president Jim Tolkan shared his impression of the platform.

“ADAMM partnered with RoadDealer.com because it provides an excellent service to our members. RoadDealer.com’s dealer only used vehicle listing service provides an excellent tool to sell inventory,” Tolkan said.

CATA president Dave Sloan added that he likes the idea of helping dealers find the right vehicles for their customers.

“The CATA has always wanted to offer members a dealer-to-dealer auction site and RoadDealer.com provides just that,” Sloan said. “It’s something that is certain to save our members money and time.”
