AutoGrab launches Wholesale Sourcing with Slattery, Grays and Auto Auctions

Australia’s leading automotive intelligence platform, AutoGrab, has launched its new Wholesale Sourcing product, with Slattery, Grays and Auto Auctions as the first partners to join the platform.

Wholesale Sourcing gives dealers a powerful competitive edge by integrating auction house inventory directly into AutoGrab’s existing Sourcing platform. For the first time, dealers can access, evaluate, and act on wholesale listings in the same place they already manage retail sourcing, streamlining the entire acquisition process.

The initiative forms a central part of AutoGrab’s strategy to “close the loop” on the vehicle lifecycle, ensuring a seamless experience from acquisition to sale while driving stronger profitability across dealerships.

Key Features

• Dedicated Wholesale Section: A new tab within the Sourcing interface to clearly separate retail and wholesale listings.
• Detailed Auction Information: Access to lot numbers, bid times, starting bids, and live bidding data.
• Condition Reports: Filter and compare vehicles based on comprehensive inspection details.
• CarAnalysis Reports: Generate reports on any wholesale vehicle, including write-off status and build data.
• Auction Performance Data: Where available, view bidding activity, watchers, and engagement statistics.

Dealer Benefits

• Expanded Inventory: Direct access to vehicles from leading auction houses, including ex-lease, repossessed, and fleet stock.
• Stronger Margins:  Wholesale pricing creates opportunities for improved profit margins through smarter purchasing.
• Greater Market Transparency: Compare retail and wholesale pricing data in a single view for sharper trade-in, stocking, and retail strategies.
• Efficiency Gains: Eliminate the need to switch between platforms by managing all sourcing in one place.

“This transforms our Sourcing platform into a unified hub where dealers can discover, track, and evaluate both retail and wholesale vehicles without switching between different systems.

The goal is to stitch together every possible vehicle acquisition path, from private sellers to trade-ins and now, wholesale auctions.

By expanding the sourcing proposition to include wholesale, AutoGrab becomes the go-to platform for all of a dealer’s sourcing needs.

This streamlined approach is designed to make the entire vehicle acquisition process more efficient and strategic.”

Quotes attributable to Tim Slattery, Managing Director, Slattery Auctions

“We’re excited to be the first auction house to integrate with AutoGrab’s sourcing app, making our listings instantly visible to over 3,500 dealerships across Australia. This partnership significantly expands the reach and visibility of our auctions by placing our inventory directly in front of active, in-market buyers at the exact moment they’re sourcing stock. This enhanced convenience for professional buyers increases competitive interest in our listings and ultimately delivers stronger results for our sellers. By aligning with the platforms dealers already use daily, we’re not just increasing exposure. Slattery Auctions is modernising how vehicle auctions connect with the buying market.

Integrating with AutoGrab puts our listings directly in front of thousands of active dealers the moment they’re sourcing stock. It’s a smarter, faster way to connect buyers and sellers, and a strong step forward in modernising how vehicle auctions work.”
