Heavy-Duty Parts Distribution & Service Report

This report has been prepared by FOCUS Investment Banking’s Automotive Aftermarket team to help heavy-duty truck parts & service business owners evaluate exit timing, readiness, and value as we move into 2026.

Heavy-duty parts distribution & service has entered a decisive phase of consolidation. Industry fundamentals remain attractive, but the balance of power is shifting. As a result, we believe independents are approaching a scale-or-exit inflection point, as larger, more sophisticated assets increasingly command premium valuations and gain competitive advantages mirroring the consolidation patterns previously observed in tire & service and collision.

This report addresses historic, current, and forecasted heavy-duty M&A consolidation trends. It is structured to offer clarity around common key themes of readiness, risk, legacy, and outcome, regardless of whether owners are considering a full or partial exit.

We hope this report serves as a practical and informative resource.

Should you wish to discuss your business confidentially, we welcome the opportunity to provide advice tailored to your specific situation and objectives.
