CSK Auto Corporation

CSK Auto Corporation is owned and operated by O'Reilly Auto Parts, who serves two distinct customer bases - the professional (installer) customer who provides auto repair services to their customers (DIFM - do it for me), and retail walk-in customers (DIY - do it yourself). Now, more than 60 years later, the 75,000-plus team members at O'Reilly Auto Parts are proud of the company's achievements over the years. They have grown through new store and distribution center openings, as well as numerous mergers and acquisitions. O'Reilly currently operates stores in 47 states, including Alaska and Hawaii, and has distribution centers in 27 locations. Dramatic changes in technology, inventory control, facilities, and sheer size mark the O'Reilly growth and success story. But, it is their spirit of teamwork - how important it was then and how important it remains - that drives performance. The company's values and culture that started with the original 13 employee/owners remain evident and strong as they expand and develop Team O'Reilly.
