It’s a simple fact of life. Perfection is an impossible standard. But in the results-driven world, we are constantly striving for perfection to achieve greatness. Back in 1998, the world saw a fragmented recycled parts industry. Our founders, however, saw an opportunity – to provide quality, high-value alternatives for the automotive replacement parts marketplace.
This series showcases companies that are helping to preserve our planet through eco-friendly initiatives and innovative technologies and solutions.
Viewers will get an inside look into our facility in Casa Grande, Arizona and have the chance to hear first-hand about how LKQ participates in the circular economy from Nick Zarcone, LKQ’s CEO; Justin Jude, North American President; Sandy Pierantoni, Director, ESG Strategy & Initiatives; and Aaron Smith, Casa Grande Plant Manager. There will even be a guest appearance from the Mayor of Casa Grande.
Part of LKQ’s mission is to build strong partnerships in the communities in which we operate. Many communities today are unable to thrive because of many socio-economic factors; basic needs like a regular meal are not being met. LKQ partnered with Feeding America, a nationwide network of more than 200 food banks that feed more than 46 million people annually, to help satisfy some of this need. We are LKQ Proud to be recognized as a partner with Feeding America.
Today, we are proud to be the world’s largest recycler of vehicles. Our salvage vehicle operations recycle more than 90% of the materials from end-of-life vehicles that would otherwise end up in a landfill. LKQ was built on a solid foundation with attention to recycling and sustainability efforts. And yet, we realize the need to continually do more.
