Automotive aftermarket parts distributor with 345+ locations across 35+ states
Factory Motor Parts operates a large-scale distribution network for OEM aftermarket automotive parts, serving dealer, fleet, and retail channels. The tech stack reveals a company in transition: legacy enterprise systems (Oracle NetSuite, EDI, Microsoft Office suite) sit alongside modern AI/ML tools (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) and automation platforms (n8n, UiPath). Project list—AI prototyping, contract management, EDI automation, payment analytics—and pain points around process efficiency and fraud prevention signal active investment in supply-chain digitization and operational automation rather than product innovation.
Factory Motor Parts is a family-owned automotive aftermarket distributor founded in 1945, operating 345+ locations across 35+ states with over 3,000 employees. The company supplies OEM and branded aftermarket parts to dealers, fleets, and retail customers. Operations span battery sales, wholesale distribution, and logistics. Current hiring activity is focused on sales roles alongside smaller investments in data, operations, and finance functions, with velocity accelerating—typical of a mid-market distributor modernizing back-office and front-line systems.
