An omnichannel platform for the purchase and sale of used cars keeps expanding its capacity to auction reconditioned vehicles.
Carvana Co. is developing its third auction and reconditioning “megasite” in Las Vegas, following the recent announcements of plans for its first megasite in Kansas City and second hub in Houston.
Following this transition, Carvana will establish inspection and reconditioning center (IRC) capabilities at the existing Las Vegas site of its ADESA wholesale auction subsidiary while maintaining all digital and in-lane auction operations.
The site covers approximately 46 acres and over 5,000 parking spaces. Carvana has already begun hiring new IRC associates at this facility and expects the megasite transition to create approximately 200 new entry-level and skilled jobs in the area over time.
“We are excited to continue to build out our powerful, national footprint by bringing Carvana’s inspection and reconditioning center capabilities to ADESA Las Vegas,” said Brian Boyd, Carvana senior VP of inventory. “The megasite transition not only expands Carvana’s production capacity and improves network efficiency for Carvana as a whole, but also drives faster delivery times for local retail customers and a more robust auction offering for local wholesale customers.”
By adding IRC capabilities to its ADESA Las Vegas site, Carvana intends to increase its total reconditioning capacity, which will improve product selection as well as create a pool of retail inventory in the surrounding metropolitan area.
The site will also adopt Carvana’s proprietary CARLI software, which is designed to enable efficiency, scalability, and consistency across its IRC network.
