Triangle Auto Supply Goes Live With Fuse5

YAKIMA, Wash. – Fuse5, a leading automotive aftermarket cloud platform, announced that its product has been launched by Triangle Auto Supply Company in Yakima, Wash.

Triangle Auto Supply is Yakima’s oldest family owned and operated parts store. The company has been serving Eastern Washington since 1921. In business for more than 90 years, Triangle Auto Supply is a third-generation, family owned business.

"Fuse5 certainly takes us into the next century,” said Todd Degrasse, owner of Triangle Auto Supply. “From stem to stern, Fuse5 is a seamless process. We needed to transition to a new system in a very limited time frame and I’m certain no other software company could have made it happen so fast."

The creators of Fuse5 say they continually work to improve their solutions to meet the demand for independent businesses striving to remain relevant in an increasingly competitive environment.

“We are excited to have Triangle Auto join the Fuse5 family,” said Gabe Davis, CEO of Fuse5 Inc. “As an ADN partner, we’re grateful for the opportunity to bring true cloud software into a market that’s eager for change.”

According to the company, the Fuse5 cloud platform offers customers reduced monthly costs with the ability to pair their software to their business processes.

"Everyone on the Fuse5 team is very helpful and does a great job thinking outside of the box when they need to,” said Degrasse. “They really have a personal touch and truly take the time to know their customers. The Fuse5 team is second-to-none."

According to Davis, Fuse5 is a complete business management system and enterprise resource planning tool, which allows customers at all levels of the supply chain to improve their inventory efficiency, forecasting, price-points, sales strategies, online presence and more, all adding to increased profitability with drastically reduced fees for life.

“The Fuse5 platform allows Triangle Auto Supply to directly integrate with customers and distributors while adding a lot of streamlined functionality internally,” said Davis.

Federated Auto Parts Distributors announced it is entering into a collaboration with the Association of Independent Oil Distributors (AIOD) – one it said will focus on mutual benefits for the respective members.

“Federated is constantly looking at ways to improve value for all constituents and this agreement provides that,” said Sue Godschalk, president of Federated. “This collaboration provides added volume and opportunities for our suppliers, new partners for our members, and added supply points and products for shop customers. We have enjoyed working closely with several AIOD members in the past and this agreement will expand and create further opportunities for both Federated and AIOD.”
