April 29, 2013—Federated Auto Parts announced that its membership has selected Standard Motor Products Inc. (SMP) as the company’s Outstanding Vendor of the Year for the second consecutive year.

We congratulate SMP and thank them for their dedication to the success of our membership.”

Accepting the award on behalf of SMP were Bill Collins, Robert Frick, Matt Guden, Bob Kimbro, Alex Simmons and Ken Wendling.
