The Saratogian (Saratoga, NY)

Name That Company

-

I trace my roots back to 1979, when the Auto Shack store opened in Forrest City, Arkansas. I got my current name in 1987, and debuted on the New York Stock Exchange in 1991. (My shares have risen in value more than 150-fold since then.) Today, based in Memphis, Tennessee, and with a market value recently near $27 billion, I’m a premier retailer and distributo­r of automotive replacemen­t parts and vehicular accessorie­s. I boast more than 6,000 stores in the U.S., Mexico and Brazil, and I employ more than 85,000 workers on four continents. Who am I? Think you know the answer? We’ll announce it in next week’s edition.
