Be a Part of Something Genuine
For over 90 years, GPC has built its business on a solid foundation of ingenuity, innovation, and integrity. Our commitment to these founding principles allows us to consistently deliver value to customers all around the world.
Genuine Parts Company began in 1928, when Carlyle Fraser purchased a single auto parts store in Atlanta, GA for $40,000. When selling the store, the previous owner remarked that “The automobile business has reached its peak” and was “on the way downhill.” Mr. Fraser kindly disagreed, and thus, GPC was born. Since that time, we worked hard to become the $18 billion industrial powerhouse that we are today.
People Drive Our Business
As a global company, GPC employs people from all around the world because we believe our business should reflect the people, communities, and cultures we serve. We pride ourselves on creating a culture and environment that empowers our people to be their very best; a place where their voices can be heard, and their insights are not only welcomed but also encouraged.
Genuine Parts Company became an industry-leading company by serving the needs of our customers and our employees. Through hard work and innovation, our people play a crucial role in the success of our business. Our differences make us stronger, smarter, and better, but it’s the qualities we share that make us genuinely unique.

Intrepid Fallen Heroes
GPC has been a major contributor to the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund since 2012. In 2018, on behalf of the NAPA family, GPC presented the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund (IFHF) with a check for $2,360,750 raised through the 2017 “Get Back and Give Back” campaign. To date, this annual campaign has raised a staggering $10 million. APG’s NAPA Auto Parts has a large military family that includes both our employees and our customers.
American Cancer Society
GPC participates in the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life as well as the Real Men Wear Pink (RMWP) campaign. RMWP inspires men to take a more prominent role in raising breast cancer awareness and funds. Each October since 2018, GPC has held a month-long campaign that has, in total, raised over $185,000.
American Red Cross
For over 20 years, GPC has teamed up with the American Red Cross in their mission to provide disaster relief, training, and blood collections. Every year, we hold at least 15 blood drives and donate over 400 pints of blood — earning us the 2017 Bloodhound Award for donating the most pints of blood per percentage of employees.
City of Refuge Atlanta
Since 2013, GPC has supported City of Refuge Atlanta by providing the NAPA Autoskills Training Center: a 15-week training program that teaches individuals automotive skills and provides job placement so they can put their new skills to good use.
United Way
Since the 1930s, GPC has helped the United Way’s fundraising efforts by sponsoring informational breakfasts, softball games, tennis tournaments, cricket games, silent auctions, and more. Events such as these help the United Way provide the funding needed to support their network of over 1,700 organizations.
In 1961, we deepened our partnership with the United Way by participating in the Loaned Executive Program where one employee at a time is selected to work with the organization for three months while still receiving their regular salary.
