"Organizing key business functions under a single leader will increase our ability to design complete solutions for the customers we serve. Scott will play a pivotal role in MPS's strategic growth within our core automotive market and adjacent markets."
"I'm excited to return to my automotive roots and bring my expertise in the heavy-duty vehicle, transit and construction aftermarket to MPS," said Robertson.
"MPS has a reputation for providing high-quality turnkey solutions in the aftermarket supply chain and I am excited to work with Brian, the executive team and our partners at Radial Equity Partners to take Multi Parts to the next level."
