Introduction to the automotive aftermarket.

Sinatec Europe has a rich history in the automotive aftermarket, our oldest and most established market. With years of experience and in-depth knowledge, we have built a solid reputation by supplying high-quality small parts through wholesalers, rather than directly to automotive companies or end users. This strategic approach has made us a leader in the Benelux market, setting us apart through our customer-oriented vision and innovative market approach and solutions.

Our approach has led to the development of a comprehensive network within the automotive aftermarket. We take pride in our close collaboration with wholesalers, which enables us to consistently and efficiently meet the needs of our customers. This extensive network allows us to respond quickly and effectively to the changing demands of the market, ensuring that we always stay ahead in service and product quality. Sinatec is the relieving customer partner, providing annual savings for the end user. 

The automotive distributor.

Sinatec understands that distributors benefit from a market-conform assortment that requires minimal product management efforts. Our practices ensure that all data is accurate, such as price lists, item master data, and PIM data. Moreover, each item is provided with a barcode label so that processes run smoothly; this may seem obvious, but it is not. 

Distributors in the automotive aftermarket can effortlessly offer the complete range of low voltage products and technical consumables to their network of wholesalers under one roof, and Sinatec Europe provides a generalist assortment with a specialist character.

With on-site sales support and solutions for both wholesale distributors and garages, distributors can trust that they are offering a seamlessly integrated, reliable solution that enhances their efficiency and helps them meet the highest standards in the market.

Wholesaler in automotive materials.

Sinatec has approached the sale of small materials and related products exclusively through the wholesaler as a pioneer in the automotive aftermarket. The wholesale trade in auto parts is increasingly evolving into a one-stop-shop for their customers, the car companies, and therefore cannot do without a complete range of small materials. Although these products make up only a small part of the total turnover, it is essential that sales and findability proceed perfectly and are straightforward.

To achieve this, Sinatec offers numerous suitable solutions, such as integrations in order portals and the PromobusXXL, which provide maximum support from the wholesaler to the car company. Additionally, Sinatec ensures that everything is in order: price lists and inventory forecasts are always available, and the items are offered in packaging that perfectly meets market needs. With this approach, Sinatec ensures that wholesalers can provide a seamless, efficient, and reliable service to their customers, further strengthening their position as an indispensable partner in the automotive aftermarket.

The car company.

The car company and its workshop are the joint customer of Sinatec, the wholesaler and distributor. Sinatec's partners maintain stock levels, allowing the garage business to keep its own inventory low while still having quick access to the required products. Often, the car company is delivered multiple times a day, ensuring a seamless and efficient workflow.

The products are packaged based on the specific needs of the mechanic, so that there is never too much purchased and waste of time and goods is kept to a minimum. This results in an annual saving of at least 15%. Sinatec's products are quickly and easily discoverable and orderable through the integrations in the various ordering platforms of the wholesalers. Thanks to this approach and the innovative GRIP-x concept, Sinatec offers its customers ultimate control and efficiency in managing small materials.

But that's not all; Sinatec's range doesn't stop at technical consumables. Related low voltage products such as trailer parts, key housings, custom-fit car mats, technical spray, and many other product groups are also part of Sinatec Europe's offer.

Better organised companies.

Sinatec Europe has learned over the past decades that its services and solutions are best utilised by well-organised companies at the top of the market. These modern companies are excellently equipped to connect with Sinatec's advanced ICT solutions. They have a high willingness to invest, both in their customers and in their own future, and they recognise the clear advantages of the unique qualities that Sinatec offers. 

By collaborating with these progressive enterprises, Sinatec can further strengthen its leading position and make an optimal contribution to the growth and success of its customers.
