Federated Auto Parts and National Pronto Association merged their efforts and resources in a number of key areas to form the Automotive Parts Services Group, or simply, The Group. The goal of The Group is a solid focus on “best in class” in order to provide overall value and support within the auto care industry, build upon the success, cultures, and relationships of Pronto and Federated, and work together for a stronger future.
Both Pronto and Federated headquarters remain in place and continue to support their respective member’s needs, marketing programs, and brands, while moving to shared resources in all areas that offer efficiencies and improvement opportunities to remain competitive in a changing market. The combined organization will operate more than 5,000 locations in North America with estimated member revenue of approximately $7 billion.
