Standard Motor Products

Standard Motor Products, Inc. (NYSE: SMP) is a leading independent manufacturer and distributor of premium replacement parts in the automotive aftermarket and a custom-engineered solutions provider to vehicle and equipment manufacturers in diverse non-aftermarket end markets. With over 100 years in business, SMP manufactures and distributes premium replacement parts for automotive aftermarket customers while providing customizable solutions for vehicle control and thermal management categories through its Engineered Solutions segment. Its aftermarket products are used in the maintenance, service and repair of vehicles and are largely non-discretionary in nature. Its traditional aftermarket customer base includes program distribution groups, warehouse distributors and major retailers, who buy directly from SMP and distribute to their own outlets, jobber stores, professional shops and technicians, and "do-it-yourselfers"; for Engineered Solutions end-markets, SMP sells to manufacturers of vehicles and equipment as well as their tier suppliers and system integrators.

Standard Motor Products (SMP) was established in 1919 by Elias Fife and Ralph Van Allen in New York City, specializing in ignition and electrical products. In 1920 a west coast branch was opened in Seattle with co-founder Ralph Van Allen as general manager. In 1921 SMP moved across the East River to Long Island City, NY, and Elias Fife led the company's first sales force, vowing to have a "sales force second to none." In 1923 Irving Beck, a manufacturer of battery cables, leased space for his operation in SMP's building on 10th Street, the company's first Queens location, making battery cable products the first items to be manufactured at Standard Motor Products. With over 100 years in business, Standard Motor Products (NYSE:SMP) continues to be an automotive industry leader by adapting to changing technologies.
