    Pioneer Automotive Industries and ATP have effectively expanded operations to include an additional 100,000-square-foot warehouse adjacent to its existing distribution facility and headquarters. The company has been an established aftermarket auto parts supplier based in Meridian, Mississippi, since 1946. In 2018, sister brand ATP Automotive merged operations with Pioneer, providing the brands a centralized shipping point in Mississippi.

    Pioneer Automotive Industries President Jorge Frias said: “The new building will allow Pioneer Automotive Industries to service customers of the Pioneer and ATP brands with streamlined order fulfillment while increasing inventory capacity for growing product lines.”

    Previously, Pioneer operated out of its company owned 200,000-square-foot facility and the new connected addition will provide a total of 300,000 sqare feet and 18 shipping and receiving docks for inventory and order processing.

    Frias commented “With recent new item growth in key areas including engine and transmission mounts from Pioneer, transmission filtration from ATP and flex plates and control cables which are currently available in either brand – the increased inventory capacity is our commitment to support our customer’s growth on these categories with the latest model coverage.”
