One of the nation’s largest distributors of truck and trailer parts and services has rolled out an updated ecommerce site.

The newly updated ecommerce site for FleetPride, which operates a network of 281 stores, 55 service centers and five distribution centers, features an online inventory of 176,000 parts and enables buyers such as dealers and mechanics search by part number, cross reference, year/make/model/engine type, or vehicle identification number (VIN).

“Now customers can click, talk, chat or visit FleetPride to immediately access the expansive inventory of parts and vast network of stores, service centers and distribution centers to get the exact products and services needed to keep their trucks moving,” says FleetPride senior vice president of marketing and digital Darren Taylor.

Other new features let buyers:

• Store vehicle information to find needed parts.
• Create favorite parts and find alternative parts.
• Check the availability of real-time local inventory.
• Select how to receive product through branch pickup, local delivery, or direct shipping.

“We have invested a lot of time and resources to collect and organize mass amounts of data so our customers can make the best choices for their parts purchases,” Taylor says.
