With SEMA approaching, we got to thinking about who the real players are in the car-guy aftermarket. Apparantly there’s an organization to answer that question, the Automotive Aftermaket Status Report. We found the AASA list of the top 100 companies at AftermarketNews.com.
Here are the top 11, followed by each company’s global sales. There are familiar names here, but none of the speed companies are on the list. The money seems to be in tires and service parts. The only familiar speed companies we found in the top 100 were Holley at $148.4 million in global sales and Magnaflow at $110 million.
