IAA’s global operation, which serves more than 170 nations, is adding one more.

IAA’s parent company, RB Global, announced the digital marketplace has entered into a market alliance with North America Trading in the Middle Eastern country of Oman.

“North America Trading has an excellent reputation and team located in Oman who will help IAA connect with a base of new buyers,” IAA senior vice president of North America operations Scott Guenther said. “Through market alliances, IAA continues to seek new opportunities to drive international growth and demonstrate strong price performance.”

Per the agreement, IAA will open auction centers in three cities strategically located throughout Oman by the end of 2025. The strategic alliance “reaffirms IAA’s commitment to expanding its global buyer base by providing local services and assistance in new markets,” RB Global said in a news release.

Kastytis Latvys, president and owner of North America Trading’s parent company Atlantic Express Corporation, said, “We look forward to helping IAA streamline the process of buying and importing vehicles for customers in Oman. In collaboration with IAA’s technology, our team will support local customers in purchasing vehicles tailored to their unique needs and preferences.”
