Automotive Parts Associates, Inc. has named Steve Tucker as the organization’s president, effective March 1. After an executive search, Tucker was identified as the ideal candidate by the Board of Directors to lead APA and its initiatives toward long-term growth.
Tucker spent the past 11 years serving distribution program group Automotive Distribution Network as vice president shortly after joining ADN in 2010 to lead the newly acquired Auto Pride division. His quick advancement to vice president for ADN is attributed to his past roles at Delphi, Mid-State Automotive, Federal Mogul and Dana.
