eBay Inc. has
completed its acquisition of
WHI Solutions, a
provider of software and digital
catalog solutions for auto parts
distributors and retailers.
With the innovative team and
technology of WHI, eBay gains
expanded selection and access to
enhanced structured data,expected to
enable eBay Motors to improve parts
selection and value for customers
while enabling parts retailers,
distributors, dealers and
manufacturers to reach more
customers.
Terms of the deal were not
disclosed.
One of the big reasons for the
acquisition is to make selling parts
online easier for parts distributors
and dealers. eBay Motors now has the
foundation to expand its catalog
from auto replacement parts to
specialty equipment, racing
performance and vintage parts to
meet the needs of the automotive
enthusiast.
Listing inventory
online is now even easier for parts
distributors and dealers, due in
large part to listing fields that
automatically populate with a
description, image and vehicle
application data.
