TruStar Member Brown Distributing Co. Selects Autopart by MAM Software

Autopart will provide Brown Distributing with point-of-sale, inventory management, forecasting, purchasing, reporting and accounting for its operation.

MAM Software announced that Brown Distributing Co. has selected MAM Software’s Autopart software to replace its existing business system.

After evaluating leading aftermarket software solutions, Brown Distributing chose Autopart, MAM Software’s business-management system for parts distribution.

Brown Distributing is a full-line automotive warehouse with distribution centers in Mishawaka and Elkhart, Indiana. A third-generation family company, Brown Distributing has been serving the Michiana area since 1958. As an active member of the TruStar group, Brown Distributing strives to provide its customers with the right part for the right price in an “old-school” business environment.

“We believe that to stay competitive in the market, improving business processes and increasing efficiencies is a requirement,” said Gil Brown, president of Brown Distributing. “We felt that to grow our company and raise our level of efficiency it was time to update our core business system and take advantage of the latest technology. After a careful evaluation, we selected Autopart.”

Autopart will provide Brown Distributing with point-of-sale, inventory management, forecasting, purchasing, reporting and accounting for its operation. It will give the business clear visibility across both locations and enable the company to easily move parts between them, making sure the parts are where they’re most needed, according to MAM Software.

“We are excited to be selected by Brown Distributing,” said Lance Brierley, general manager of MAM Software, North America. “The aftermarket continues to challenge distributors and we look forward to working with Brown Distributing to help them meet those challenges and grow their company going forward.”
