About
LKQ Corporation was initially formed in 1998 through the combination of a number of wholesale recycled products businesses located in Florida, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin.
We subsequently expanded through internal development and approximately 270 acquisitions of aftermarket, recycled, refurbished, and remanufactured product suppliers and manufacturers; self-service retail businesses; and specialty vehicle aftermarket equipment and accessories suppliers.
In 2011 LKQ enters the United Kingdom with the acquisition of Euro Car Parts, the largest aftermarket hard parts distributor in the UK. Euro Car Parts had close to 90 branches throughout England and had an established national distribution center, which allowed them to re-stock on a daily basis, providing a huge competitive advantage.
