Company history


Reynolds began in 1866 as a forms printing company in Dayton, Ohio. Our relationship with the automotive industry was born in 1927, when we created standardized accounting forms for franchised Chevrolet dealers in the US. We developed batch computer processing systems in the 1960s and 70s. That led to innovations of in-house dealership management systems that set a standard for automotive retailing into the next century.

In 2006, Reynolds merged with Universal Computer Systems, Inc. (UCS), another leading dealership software provider. The merger of Reynolds and UCS created one of the world’s top dealer services suppliers.

Today, we are a leading provider of software, business forms, and professional services for automotive retailers. We offer sophisticated web technologies and the only Retail Management System for the automotive industry.

We will continue to honor our legacy of innovation and customer service over the next 150 years, and beyond.
