Keeping you moving Back in 1998, the world saw a fragmented Salvage and recycled auto parts industry. Our founders, however, saw an opportunity — To provide quality, high-value alternatives for the automotive replacement parts marketplace. Since then, we have continued driving forward, with a commitment to continuous improvement, finding creative solutions, adapting to the ever-changing competitive landscape, and providing aftermarket and recycled auto parts. A Vision for the Future LKQ Corporation is the leading provider of alternative aftermarket, specialty salvage and recycled auto parts to repair and accessorize vehicles, with operations in North America, Europe, and Taiwan. We offer our customers a broad range of replacement discount auto parts including remanufactured engines and transmissions, components, equipment, as well as OE aftermarket parts to repair and accessorize consumer automobiles and trucks, heavy truck, recreational and performance vehicles. To be the leading global value-added and sustainable distributor of vehicle parts and accessories by offering our customers the most comprehensive, available, and cost-effective selection of parts and service solutions while building strong partnerships with our employees and the communities in which we operate.” Our Company History LKQ was initially formed in 1998 through the combination of a number of wholesale recycled products businesses located in Florida, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin.
