Automotive & Spare Parts

ITG sources automotive parts against OEM references, verifies fitment data and manages the quality tiers of the aftermarket honestly — so distributors know exactly what they're buying.

Fast-moving spare partsFilters, brakes & suspensionBatteries & electricsTyres & wheelsGarage equipment

Typical procurement challenges

  • Fitment errors from ambiguous references
  • Quality tiers hidden behind identical packaging
  • Dangerous-goods rules for batteries and fluids

ITG's approach

  • OEM cross-reference verification per line item
  • Declared quality tiers with sample validation
  • Compliant packing and declaration for regulated items

Where we source it

Türkiye is a major automotive-parts producer around Bursa, İstanbul and Konya, supplying OES-grade components to European carmakers. China's Guangzhou and Ningbo aftermarket clusters cover fast movers, electrics and garage equipment at scale.

Quality & compliance

Cataloguing by OEM cross-reference is the backbone; brake and safety parts are held to ECE R90-type requirements, batteries to transport regulations. ITG's inspection checks reference matching and packaging authenticity carton by carton.

How procurement really works

Vehicle-park analysis decides the assortment — the models actually on your roads, not a generic list — and replenishment runs on consolidated monthly programmes with dead-stock discipline.

Logistics considerations

Dense, high-value cargo suited to consolidation; tyres and batteries planned for weight limits and DG compliance.
