Surplus Auto Parts & Closeout Consumer Goods Supplier

“Our business will only succeed if we are fair, with both the Suppliers
we purchase from and the Buyers we sell to.”

Before PAR, it was Consolidated International, Inc. & The Schottenstein Stores Corp.

Sol Shenk & Jerome Schottenstein
Sol & Jerome were the best, most recognizable and most influential people in the closeout industry. They knew how to buy and sell and deal. big or small. They were risk takers using their own money and always took possession of the goods into their own warehouses.

Together, Sol & Jerome started Consolidated International, Corp. in the early 1970’s. From automotive parts, to vehicles and equipment to consumer goods, eventually, Consolidated International started the Big Lots Retail Chain and went public.

The rest, as it is said, is history
With help from Eli Goldach, Dan Stergiou & Dan Goldach, Consolidated International grew into a powerhouse of buying & selling motor vehicles, construction equipment, surplus automotive parts and consumer closeout products.
