Being based out of Northeast Ohio, it seems we were fortunate to have Summit Racing right in our backyard for decades, and we have! Over the last decade or so, however, Summit has been opening additional retail locations all over the country, including Nevada and Georgia. As it turns out, they’ll be opening a fourth location in the Dallas-Fort Worth area mid-2017. Learn more in the official release from Summit Racing below!
Official Release:
Summit Racing Equipment, the world’s largest direct marketer of performance automotive parts and accessories, is pleased to announce the opening of a new Distribution Center and Retail Super Store in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Summit Racing customers in most of Texas and adjacent states will enjoy one-day delivery on orders for in-stock parts.
“Summit Racing is committed to providing our customers with the best possible service, and that includes fast shipping and delivery,” explained Nan Gelhard, Summit Racing Advertising Manager. “With the addition of our Texas facility, we will have four Distribution Centers. We will be able to deliver parts to more customers in the continental U.S. in just one to two days.”
The new Distribution Center is designed to process orders quickly and efficiently. It will be large enough to stock thousands of parts from over 1,200 manufacturers, ready for immediate delivery.
The Retail Super Store will be a destination for performance enthusiasts in the region. It will have 32,000 square feet of display space for parts, tools, and accessories for racing, street performance, trucks and off-road vehicles, restoration, late model vehicles, ATVs and UTVs, and motorcycles.
“The Retail Super Store gives customers the opportunity to see parts in person and talk directly with a tech adviser about their projects,” Gelhard continued. “You can place an order on the SummitRacing.com website and pick it up in the store. If you’re visiting from out of town, you can order at the store and have it shipped to your home.”
Construction of Summit Racing’s Texas facility is scheduled for early fall 2016. The company plans to ship orders from the new Distribution Center starting in mid-2017. The Retail Super Store will open shortly afterward.
