The company recently expanded its operations through the acquisition of Express Texas Auto Parts in Houston, Texas, further strengthening its distribution capabilities, inventory depth, and market presence.

Founded in 2015 by Masood Javid, Asian Autos has evolved from an online parts retailer into a leading distributor of genuine and aftermarket replacement parts for both Asian and European vehicles. The company maintains an inventory of more than 60,000 SKUs and serves customers nationwide through strategically Located distribution facilities and warehouses supporting wholesale, retail, and eCommerce operations across the United States.

Asian Autos offers a comprehensive range of automotive products from many of the industry's leading manufacturers, supporting professional repair facilities, independent retailers, fleet operators, and automotive enthusiasts. The company has built a strong reputation for product availability, competitive pricing, and exceptional customer service. In addition to founding the company, Javid serves as Purchasing Manager, and brings more than 30 years of experience in automotive aftermarket purchasing, sourcing, and distribution.

"We are excited to join TruStar and collaborate with our fellow members, APA shareholders, and supplier partners," said Javid. "We look forward to leveraging the programs, relationships, and opportunities available through TruStar as we continue to expand our product offerings, strengthen our distribution network, and better serve our customers throughout North America."

"I am pleased to welcome Asian Autos to the TruStar family," said Steve Tucker, President of APA/TruStar.
