Genuine Parts Company (GPC) is a U.S.-based distributor of automotive and industrial replacement parts, operating through three segments: North America Automotive Parts Group, International Automotive Parts Group, and Industrial Parts Group. The company supplies parts, accessories, tools, and related solutions for a wide range of vehicles, including hybrid and electric vehicles, trucks, buses, motorcycles, farm equipment, and heavy-duty machinery. Its product portfolio spans replacement components such as brakes, batteries, filters, engine parts, and fluids, alongside value-added services like paint mixing, hydraulic hose assembly, battery testing, and key cutting.
GPC serves independent repair shops and auto care centers primarily through the well-known NAPA brand, and also offers technical training programs to its customers. On the industrial side, the company distributes bearings, seals, gaskets, hoses, hydraulics, pneumatics, abrasives, adhesives, power transmission products, tools, electrical supplies, and chemicals. It complements this with inventory management, vendor-managed inventory, RFID-based asset tracking, and specialized repair services for gearboxes, pumps, drive shafts, and fluid power systems. The company was incorporated in 1928 and is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia.
GPC operates as a B2B distributor within the Consumer Discretionary sector (GICS Sub-Industry: Distributors), generating revenue by moving parts from thousands of suppliers to a fragmented base of professional installers and industrial customers. Its model combines broad product assortment with localized service, supported by large-scale distribution networks such as NAPA in North America.
