HandiFox Handles Erie Automotive’s Inventory to Let Them Handle the Safety of Their Customers on the Road More Efficiently

In the automotive aftermarket since 2010, Erie Automotive Aftermarket Holdings is the exclusive licensee of the mark RainEater Wiper Blades - high quality beam windshield wipers that safeguard your wellbeing on the road.

Erie Automotive operates in 12 geographic markets, where they sell to auto inspection, repair, tire stores, oil and lube shops,all on consignment, as well as through an e-commerce channel and their distributor program, having over 2000 customers overall.

Erie Automotive was looking to grow and do their business more efficiently just like all big players in the market always do. Back in 2012, inventory control was one of the main concerns for the company, inventory being the lifeblood of their business. They were looking for a way for their replenishment personnel to interface with QuickBooks several time throughout the day along with an easy way to track inventory from multiple places throughout the country.

It is exactly when Erie Automotive came across the HandiFox inventory app that satisfied their major requirements for the inventory software - tight integration, ease of use and accuracy. It took them just a couple of days to get up and running.

“We have 7 route managers in the field that use Handifox every day. The main features we use are invoicing and payments, printing and inventory control”, says Jeff Fatica, CEO Erie Automotive Aftermarket Holdings (RainEater Wiper Blades). “The system itself runs at, I would guess, 98% efficiency and very little need for support. And when we do need it Eugene is our contact and he is always on it.”

We at HandiFox are proud to aid small businesses in their everyday operations which in the long run is part of their continued success in the market. We appreciate Jeff and his team staying with us throughout these 5 years and wish you guys happy customers and a growing business where inventory is never an issue!
