Pep Boys
“In 1921, four Navy buddies pooled together $800 to open a single auto parts supply
store in Philadelphia. This venture would go on to become the multi-billion dollar
nationwide retails and service chain that is known as Pep Boys today. With over 700
stores across the U.S. and Puerto Rico, the Company has come a long way from its
humble beginnings.”
