Parts supplier APA says UK to benefit from expansion

10 June 2025  

Replacement car parts manufacturer APA Industries has announced a major warehouse expansion that the firm said will directly boost supplies for the UK and other markets.

APA said it has completed a 40,000 ft² expansion to its existing 100,000 ft² warehouse in California to speed-up orders of more than 9,000 SKUs, supporting its ÜRO Parts and Autotecnica brands and products.

Drew Persson, APA’s director of brand strategy, told Aftermarket on June 9 that while the expansion is in the US, it is a key part of the firm’s global strategy as it serves customers across the UK, Europe, US and Asian markets.

“This investment directly benefits them by allowing us to expand our inventory of exclusive and hard-to-source SKUs. This means faster fulfilment, greater depth of range, and stronger supply continuity — all of which are increasingly important for UK distributors and garages looking for reliable sourcing partners.”

APA president Danny Seeman said the investment is a critical step that supports continued growth while reinforcing the firm’s commitment to reliability and service.
