Tri-State Enterprises, a wholesale distributor of automotive parts, car audio/electronics and truck accessories, has announced its acquisition of WM Automotive based in Fort Worth, Texas.
Established on Sept. 1,1976, by founder Wilson McMillion, WM Automotive has been a leader in the auto parts distribution channel in the Texas market. WM Automotive has the reputation in the industry for top-quality brand names, value-added service and well-trained people. McMillion was a loyal employee for years when he started his career.

“We are very proud and extremely excited to bring this new, automotive parts addition to the Tri-State family. This opportunity opens up several new avenues and gives us a great team of knowledgeable people that know the industry and have a passion for what they do,” said Tri-State Owner Tristan Taylor.
