PartsTrader is committed to providing collision repair shops with information to help them make the best decision for their business. Continuing this effort, PartsTrader is introducing the Premier Supplier designation to highlight suppliers who are committed to providing repairers with a high level of service through the PartsTrader application.
Premier Suppliers have proven their commitment to collision repair shops by responding promptly to quote requests, confirming orders quickly at the quoted prices and maintaining a high overall rating. The Premier Supplier icon will be visible to you on your screen when you are working in the Quote Selection Tool.

PartsTrader is committed to providing actionable information to help repairers and suppliers make better business decisions. As part of this initiative, PartsTrader developed the Premier Supplier program to provide repairers with additional information about suppliers in their market. Premier Suppliers will now be highlighted by the Premier Supplier ribbon next to the star rating in the repairer's Quote Selection Tool.
Premier Suppliers have proven they are committed to providing their repair shop customers with a high level of service through the PartsTrader application. This includes responding promptly to quote requests, confirming orders quickly and at quoted prices, and maintaining an overall high rating.
Details on the requirements needed to achieve Premier Supplier status can be found on the FAQ page. In addition to highlighting the Premier Supplier status to repair shops, these suppliers have reduced monthly subscription pricing.
