In relationship with NAPA, GPC grew its automotive business to become the largest automotive aftermarket network across the globe.
From the beginning, GPC has focused on providing its customers with quality products and swift, reliable service. The company has grown organically and through acquisitions, including the addition of Motion Industries, a leading industrial distributor, in 1976. Today, Genuine Parts Company is a global service organization engaged in the distribution of automotive and industrial replacement parts with approximately 58,000 employees and over 10,000 operations in 17 countries across North America, Europe and Australasia.
