Automotive Parts Associates is pleased to announce that Midwest Parts Hub, a division of Kelley Automotive Group based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, has joined the group as a shareholder.

Founded in 1952 by Jim Kelley, Kelley Automotive Group is a family-owned dealership group representing multiple vehicle brands and serving customers throughout northeastern Indiana and beyond. Midwest Parts Hub opened in 2025 and services customers throughout the surrounding region through its extensive inventory of genuine General Motors OEM, ACDelco, and aftermarket parts, along with daily delivery routes and advanced technology systems. The company emphasizes inventory availability, experienced staff, technology integration, and reliable service as key drivers of its continued success. 

“In today’s market, if you want to stay competitive, you need to be part of a program group,” said Mike Smith, Parts Director for Kelley Automotive Group. “Operating completely on your own is no longer effective. After evaluating our options, we knew APA was the right choice.”

“We are excited to welcome Midwest Parts Hub to APA,” said Steve Tucker, president of APA/TruStar. “Their long-standing commitment to service, innovation, and operational excellence makes them a tremendous addition to our shareholder family.”
