Copart Automotive – our specialist remarketing division dedicated to the Fleet, Finance, Retail, and Rental sectors – has partnered with The Independent Motor Dealers Association (IMDA) to provide their members with access to Copart’s global online marketplace for the remarketing and disposal of used cars.
IMDA members will also have access to dedicated account management support from our Copart Automotive team throughout the entire sales process to ensure speed of sale.
The Independent Motor Dealers Association was formed to provide independent used vehicle retailers and dealerships with support, representation, and ‘a voice’.
As an approved supplier, we can offer a wealth of benefits to IMDA members and provide the support they need to remarket (or dispose of) used vehicles with specific characteristics that make them more problematic through historic disposal channels.
“We believe Copart will add great value to the IMDA and its members though our specialist remarketing and recycling services. Put simply, we can help realise significantly high returns, rapidly, on vehicles that can be more difficult to sell. We can provide one of the largest global online marketplaces for the remarketing and disposal of used cars, along with unrivalled dedicated account management support throughout the selling process.”
Michael Stewart, Automotive Sales Director – Copart
Finally reopening after months of closure, many dealerships, show rooms, car supermarkets, and traders will be seeking assistance to clear old stock and get their sales moving again and our Copart Automotive team is primed to help them.
Over the past year, we have provided consistency and stability to the automotive industry, remaining operational throughout due to our established and fully online auction, collection, and delivery services.
All vehicles from IMDA members will be promoted with our ‘Best Possible Light’ ethos in mind, using a range of specialist services including 360° imaging, valeting, vehicle grading, and more, to provide their buyers and sellers the best possible value.
With thousands of Copart Members online in over 110 countries, we’re confident we can provide the best value for vehicles that IMDA members have found somewhat problematic or challenging to sell.
“We’re honoured to be named as an approved supplier for the IMDA, who apply very strict criteria when assessing any potential new partnerships, including the demonstration of shared ethics and morals. We’re delighted to have been accepted and we look forward to helping IMDA members access our market leading vehicle remarketing and recycling services.”
Mark Godfrey, Director of Copart Automotive
Umesh Samani, IMDA Chairman, added: “We are looking forward to working with Copart, who we feel can generate great returns for our members with problematic vehicles that are proving difficult to sell. Copart’s unique global marketplace for this profile of vehicle, alongside their wide range of specialist remarketing and recycling services, makes them a perfect partner for the IMDA.”
