Mighty Distributing announces the continued growth of franchise owner Rob Sinanan through his acquisition of Mighty Auto Parts of Northern New Jersey. The established territory officially transitioned to Sinanan’s leadership in January, representing a strategic expansion of his existing operations within the Mighty system.
Rob Sinanan brings nearly 20 years of direct experience within the Mighty Auto Parts system, having built his career in the highly competitive New York City & Long Island market. He began working with Mighty Auto Parts of New York in 2006, where he quickly distinguished himself through strong operational execution and sales leadership. His early success was recognized when he earned the Mighty 2009 Salesperson of the Year award.
In 2017, Rob assumed ownership of Mighty Auto Parts of New York City, serving in the dual role of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Since then, he has led the business with hands-on oversight across finance, operations, sales strategy, and customer relationships.
Building on the success of his New York City operation, Rob expanded his footprint by acquiring the Northern New Jersey franchise as a second Mighty location. As part of this expansion, the Northern New Jersey territory has been strategically extended to include Staten Island, New York, allowing for geographic alignment and operational efficiencies that enhance customer service across the region.
After 42 years of dedicated service to Mighty, Paul Kerstein successfully transitioned ownership of his Northern New Jersey franchise to Rob. To ensure continuity and a smooth transition, Paul will continue to support Rob in advisory and operational roles over the next six months.
“Rob started as an employee of the local Mighty operation and grew to become the owner. His great success was formally recognized when he, and his business partner, Dexter, earned Franchise of the Year for 2021. We appreciate his tremendous commitment to Mighty with his expansion to the northern New Jersey and Staten Island markets.”
