ABOUT US

Ahwooga was born in casual conversation between Myself (Joe Chirco) and my business partner Don Wiggins, whom I have worked with for many years. We were discussing the online venues we used as tools to grow our own aftermarket automotive parts companies.

We understand it has been a difficult time in the automotive parts industry, not only to show a profit but to just keep your employees at work. Don and I kept coming to the same conclusion that maintaining our growth would be difficult when all things attached to sales on other marketplaces was driving the cost of doing business Sky High.

We thought that if we could find other venues to list our products on, that had low or "no" sales fees, the added sales could help offset some of the other rising expenses.

Many hours were spent searching for marketplaces that would fill the void but there was none to be had. It was at this point that we decided that something had to be done, and we were the guys to do it. We assembled a team of talented, and motivated car guys and laid out what was needed to help sellers add revenue to their companies at a very low expense. After a year of pretty intensedevelopment we finally made our vision a reality. Ahwooga was born.

I built my automotive companies the same way that many other hard working people have. Lots of work, long hours, and cold dinners. I started selling parts at swap meets in the late 70’s on the west coast and that feeling of connecting with people who share the same interest has never left me.

This is the same feeling we want to bring to all people that use Ahwooga. It is a secure environment with great tools to allow sellers to be the BOSS of their Ahwooga stores. We would not impose our will on such things as "what payment methods" a seller can accept or how a seller should ship their products.

We wanted to offer sellers the most for their money so we will never have any final sales fees. You work hard for your money and its about time you get to keep it. We have very simple membership plans. We are confident one will meet your needs.

If you don't need a membership plan and only have an item or two to sell, that's cool. Non-members can list single items for 1 buck each. Period. One buck.

We also wanted to offer forums where you can post questions and get information, or just hang out and chat and meet some new friends.

Ahwooga was built for you. Our team will be there for you every step of the way, this is your community, please have fun. Promote and sell your products with confidence and freedom. Remember, were car guys too, we know.

Thanks,

Joe Chirco
