Turbosmart PTY LTD President/CEO Nicholas Cooper and Turbosmart USA LLC Vice President/GM Marty Staggs have spent the last twelve years developing a successful business model for distributing automotive aftermarket products throughout North America. Nicholas and Marty decided it was time to start offering their services to other companies looking to pe*****te and/or gain market share in the North
American automotive market, and so 3pConnect USA was born.
3pConnect is a California based third party logistics services and consulting company, offering a comprehensive range of logistics and consulting services to automotive performance product manufacturers. The outsourcing of logistics is a proven and effective method for companies looking to greatly expand their reach and capabilities with minimal investment. The 3pConnect USA 40,000 square foot facility in Southern California (Rancho Cucamonga) is ideally located to provide unprecedented levels of service to all of North America. This facility is located just 60 miles east of Los Angeles making access to the California sea ports is quite effective. In addition, UPS and FedEx main western US hubs are located just 5 miles away (as is Ontario International Airport). This provides 3pConnect with the unique capability of shipping your product up until 7pm PST (10pm EST) when required. It is easy to see why Porsche, Mercedes Benz, Toyota, Bosch, Ford, NAPA, Autozone, and many other automotive manufacturers and suppliers have also chosen to set up their Distribution Warehouses in the same area. In addition to setting up a facility in an ideal location, 3pConnect has also implemented various systems and procedures that allow for very efficient receiving, shipping, inventory management, and financial processing of most any type of product. The technology employed by 3pConnect is state of the art allowing true real-time data that is available globally from any internet connected device. With features such as automated report generation and delivery, remote access, sales trending and forecasting, and automated inventory replenishment, it is clear that every process has been optimized. These capabilities have helped our Turbosmart USA business achieve industry leading growth. Turbosmart products are now distributed by over 200 companies in North America including Summit Racing, Mopac, Turn14, APG, Motorstate, NAPA Auto Parts and Amazon. Just over 8 years ago, 3pConnect offered similar services to Whiteline/Redranger.
3pConnect successfully helped Redranger establish a physical presence in the US Market and contributed to major growth in their North American business. Today, 3pConnect is handling the North American business for many other quality Australian brands such as Pedders Suspension and Brakes, Speedflow, Diver Consolidated Industries, Mean Mother, Davies Craig, G&G Technics, and more.
