ROANOKE, Va. (Jan. 19, 2017) — The U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance has extended its relationship with Advance Auto Parts Inc. as the exclusive auto parts and accessories supplier for the 55,000-plus government, education, and nonprofit entities it represents.
The partnership will extend through December 2019, Advance Auto said, and represents both an extension and expansion of the benefits and services Advance began providing to U.S. Communities agencies in 2011.
U.S. Communities is the only government purchasing cooperative organization created by public agencies for public agencies, helping secure more than $2 billion in products and services for participating agencies each year.
"We are honored to grow Advance's relationship with U.S. Communities and take great pride in the confidence their organization has placed in our product assortment, automotive programs and Team Members," said Bob Cushing, executive vice president, professional, at Advance.
