NETWORK AUTOMOTIVE DISTRIBUTION The Network is the umbrella organization for three of the premier groups in the auto care industry: Parts Plus, Auto Pride and Independent Auto Parts of America. Our combined strength and stability collectively consists of more than 300 WD locations that service more than 1,500 affiliated auto stores and 2,000 service centers throughout North America.

Just as there shouldn’t be a “one-size-fits-all” approach to any division, the Network doesn’t limit a member to staying in one division. There is a method and a pathway to growth that each member can utilize that is specific to their needs and requirements. No longer will a member who has outgrown a group need to look elsewhere. The various brands in the Network have different requirements for their marketplace–which is why the professional staff is constantly updating the menu of offerings for all divisions. Each individual member decides what programs and elements they want to use–product strategies, information and technology, marketing and training, and national accounts.
