Ready for another trip down memory lane? In 1998, after years of working together, GPC acquired United Auto Parts, now known as UAP Inc.. This acquisition took GPC’s automotive business geographically into Canada and has continued to be fruitful and beneficial to the company. UAP was founded in 1926 by Charles E. Préfontaine in Montreal, Quebec and today is the leading distributor of automotive parts in Canada with 14 Distribution Centers and over 700 locations consisting of NAPA Auto Parts Stores, Heavy Vehicle Stores and Import Parts Facilities. This acquisition is a prime example of how GPC strategically expands its reach while prioritizing local expertise. Combining an international presence with a local approach allows us to reinforce our leadership position and benefit from both a solid distribution network and proximity to our communities in Canada. We are proud of the strong foundation UAP has built in the Canadian market and look forward to continued success together. #GPCHistory #LifeAtGPC #GenerationsofGPC

Today, Motion is a leading distributor of industrial parts and services across North America and Asia Pacific with over 700 locations, 30 distribution centers and over $8 billion in sales in 2023. Motion's incredible success is a testament to this powerful partnership. Motion Australia Motion Asia Pacific #GPCHistory #LifeAtGPC #GenerationsofGPC
