Australia’s latest NAPA Auto Parts store has opened its doors in Coffs Harbour, utilising years of automotive knowledge from the original Ashdown-Ingram team and now offering a wider range for their customers on the north coast of New South Wales.
Still located in the original location you know and love at Unit 1, 19 Forge Drive, North Boambee Valley, the location is a rebrand of the popular Ashdown-Ingram site, which local auto electricians have been seeking both specialist advice and quality parts from for years.
The local team of automotive parts specialists can now support local mechanical, electrical and air con workshops with an extended product range from market leading brands and everyday great value through service and knowledge.
This knowledge is referred to as NAPA Know How and allows NAPA Auto Parts to leverage a vast knowledge bank from product teams, local and international brands and state-based specialists who live and breathe aftermarket parts. When combined with the skills and knowledge of local parts specialists, we can ensure you get the right part for your vehicle every time.
With over 90 years’ experience in the Australian automotive aftermarket space, NAPA Know How is the foundation of extensive product knowledge across braking, electrical, air conditioning, servicing, engine cooling, driveline, tools and equipment, and more!
NAPA Auto Parts Coffs Harbour is New South Wales’ 10th location and 54th branch nationally, and will continue to support customers across Sapphire Beach, Moonee Beach, Emerald Beach, Korora, Karangi, Upper Orara, Boambee, Toormina, Sawtell Bonville, Bundagen and Repton.
NAPA Auto Parts Regional Manager, Carwyn James, is excited to see the branch offer a wider range of solutions for their customers.
“The conversion will mean the NAPA Auto Parts Coffs Harbour will have access to over 15,000 SKUs of leading brands to help support local automotive repairers with the right tools, equipment, and parts. (Store Manager) David and the team have a strong knowledge of the specialist repairers after years of support and have been spending time over the past few years building relationships with generalist workshops. They know how to support your business and how to help you get those vehicles off their hoists and back onto the road quicker.
“With tools like NAPA PROLink and state-based distribution centres, as well as a market leading range from the world’s most trusted brands, we have the Know How and capability to support more workshops across the region” he said.
Importantly, as with all NAPA Auto Parts locations, whilst the brand may be different, we still have the same people you know and trust working behind the counter. The only change Ashdown-Ingram Coffs Harbour customers will come to experience is the fresh coat of blue paint and the use of NAPA PROLink.
NAPA PROLink is an online system used to access an enhanced vehicle parts catalogue search engine. It is designed to make it easier for you to efficiently search for and order parts specific vehicles or applications. Key features of the tool are that it provides ‘real time’ information on pricing and inventory at your home store and surrounding stores, as well as giving you the ability to build customer quotes, order parts online, search for Log Book Service information (requires SmartQuote subscription) plus much more.
With a strong range currently available, over the course of the coming year the NAPA Auto Parts range will continue to expand with new brands and products from world renowned brand leaders becoming available. This means greater access to trusted brands through increased stock levels in locations convenient to you.
