Auca gears up for new vehicle aggregation platform
Auca has appointed a new senior management team to manage its new vehicle aggregation platform for motor trade used car buyers, which will go live in July.
Lisa Grimsley, Michael Buxton and Jamie Newman have joined to launch and build the platform, which will bring together the vehicle search and buying process for professional used car buyers in one place.
It will feature more than 10,000 used cars, LCVs, trucks, motorcycles and classic cars from multiple auctions and wholesale platforms.
Grimsley has been appointed chief executive officer, while Buxton is joins the board with responsibility for strategic and financial planning and Newman has been named client services director.
Grimsley said: “The motor trade has always been time-poor when it comes to sourcing wholesale stock from an ever-growing number of physical and online providers.
“Based on these known challenges we have pulled all the stock and key tasks into one place which will make a dealer’s life much easier, and after 12 months of development the Auca platform is close to launch. We have had some incredibly positive feedback during our pilot launch phase from professional used car buyers.”
