Hollander International

What Hollander International does

Hollander International Systems Limited, headquartered in Edinburgh and founded in 1936, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Solera Holdings that provides auto parts inventory and yard management software to vehicle dismantlers, car breakers, and auto recyclers. Its core product, Pinnacle Professional, is a yard management system covering inventory management, work orders, multi-site operations, reporting (with over 100 unique reports), and integrations to manufacturer part numbers, eBay Motors bulk listing, and the proprietary Hollander Part Interchange compatibility database that is updated daily by an internal research team. The platform is extended by modular add-ons: Sales Inventory Tools (Barcode Scanner Pro, Inventory Pro, Tricoder Pro, Snap-It Android applications), Website Solutions (e-commerce storefronts with an OPS API data feed), Fleet Solutions (B2B portals for contract and insurance work), and PinnacleNet (a cloud-based inter-trading network enabling cross-yard parts sales, where on average over 10% of customers' inventory sales are reported to come from inter-trading).

The business model is predominantly subscription-based recurring software revenue, priced per yard on a quote basis with a recommended minimum of three users per site and fees split 50% on signature and 50% on installation; ancillary revenue is generated through on-site and classroom training (minimum three-day onboarding), hardware and peripherals (servers, label printers, handhelds), and server backup/maintenance services. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales in the UK, Australia, Spain, and North America with event-driven acquisition (the annual Auto Recyclers Conference co-hosted with APRAA), product-led growth through the PinnacleNet cloud platform and the hollanderparts.com.au multi-supplier marketplace (which supports over 175 Pinnacle users), and channel partnerships including eBay Motors for marketplace distribution.
