At every level of our company, TPH's mission is to provide exemplary service to our customers, be it through quality parts, competitive prices or honest relationships. TPH is an auto parts company that recognizes how hard our customers work, and seeks to match that commitment with a dedicated management team. Our corporate staff has decades of industry exposure and expertise, and utilizes that knowledge to improve our customers' experience.
Most college students are on a budget, and I was no different. I had a 1966 Oldsmobile that was in continuous need of repair, and while I found an old mechanic who knew what to do, he was physically unable to do it. Essentially, he would point out what needed to be done, and I would attempt to do it! Little did I know, that was the beginning of my automotive aftermarket career.
Despite a lack of technical or automotive experience, I have been fortunate to spend the last 38 years engaging associates, customers and vendors in our dynamic automotive aftermarket industry. TPH has a great culture of growth, and of developing its people. Dozens of our key management team started with entry-level positions in the company, and will lead our growth and opportunities in the future. I am proud to be a part of their growth and development, and am excited to see what the next 40 years will bring.
