Autoco.com has recently acquired several companies that are helping it to establish an even stronger e-commerce enterprise. Autoco.com consists of three operating divisions, Royal Oak Technologies, Inc, GTA Auctions and Liquidations, Inc. and The Motor Pages.

Royal Oak is a national sales and marketing agent representing brand name products in Canada, including Jensen car audio systems, First Smart sensor security products and Koss speakers and multimedia products.

GTA Auctions and Liquidations, Inc. is the largest public automobile and liquidations auction in Ontario, Canada - a region that represents the largest automotive market in Canada. The reputation of the GTA division has created a very loyal public and corporate following, including the Toronto Police Department and a number of well known financial institutions.

The Motor Pages is an Internet-based service, due to be launched within the next few weeks, that will allow potential automobile buyers to research, evaluate and simplify the very stressful exercise of purchasing new or pre-owned vehicles. Its immediate goal is to reach at least a 10% market share among 45,000 dealerships in Toronto, Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit and Buffalo. It plans to accomplish this by providing several value-added services to the dealerships in addition to the information related to numerous Internet inquiries by potential customers. These additional services include dealer-to-dealer networking, which will enable small automobile dealers to have access to the inventories of hundreds or even thousands of other dealers, as well as real-time online inventory management and other Internet related services.
