  Schnair Sales & Service began over 70 years ago, developing and growing into a team of knowledgeable representatives, with the experience and vision in understanding today’s marketplace. Our specialty is not just selling the product, but pulling the product through to the end user and building long lasting manufacturer / customer relationships that are mutually beneficial and result in real value for both parties.

  SSi sells to all segments of the automotive aftermarket; traditional, 2 and 3 step distribution, tool and equipment, PBE, heavy duty, high performance and retail. Additionally, we focus on related markets such as mass merchants, C-store distribution, farm & home, e-commerce, home improvement, drug & grocery and specialty retailers. We tailor our approach to each manufacturer’s unique needs and goals.

  We have a dedicated sales force to sell your products into all channels of distribution and a service team implementing those sales. We individualize your service needs and put procedures in place to save you, your employees and the customer time and money.

  Our represented manufacturers realize growth as we excel at repositioning existing products through familiarity of markets and create growth / expansion based on educating the customer to the benefits of your key lines and new innovative items. As a partner with our manufacturers, we create “how-to” information that speaks to the novice as well as the seasoned veteran and helps to educate retail / distributor sales staffs to better represent your items in the field and sell more product.
