The aftermarket parts distributor Andrew Page will part company with the UK Parts Alliance (UKPA) buying group that it helped to form nine years ago with effect from 1st July, following management changes in the company.
The UKPA said earlier this month, “There have been a number of management changes at Andrew Page and as a consequence of this, Andrew Page cannot comply with the group strategy of the UKPA. Therefore they have decided to leave the UK Parts Alliance. Actions are underway to maintain national coverage and nothing changes with regards to the UKPA's strategy. It is business as usual".
The departure of Andrew Page means UKPA is left with eight member parts distribution companies, namely: Allparts Automotive Ltd., Camberley Auto Factors Ltd, CES (UK) Ltd, Central Auto Supplies, Dingbro Ltd, GMF Motor Factors Ltd, Mill Autoquip Ltd, and SC Motor Factors Ltd.
