All residents of the CNMI are invited to attend the grand opening of Saipan’s newest auto parts store tomorrow, June 26. All Parts Inc., a Carquest auto parts store, officially opens its doors for business at 8am Saturday morning. It is located across from the U.S. Post Office in Chalan Kanoa, in the old Farmers Market building, very easy to spot with the red and blue Carquest stripes. The store is owned by Jim and Agnes Ripple.
Jim has been on Saipan for 22 years, and worked with the power plants for Commonwealth Utilities Corp. up until 1990. At that time he was involved in developing Mid-Pac Micronesia. He also had the distributorships for most heavy equipment and vehicles, and was involved in bringing most industrial vehicles to Saipan, including the Osh-Kosh line.
Jim and Agnes decided it was time to start their own business, and work for themselves. By teaming up with Carquest, they are able to offer competitive pricing, and plan on making customer service their highest priority. All Parts Inc. will be offering parts for all makes and models of vehicles, specializing in the most common imports sold on island. They will also special order parts, and allow the customer to choose the shipping method that fits their requirements and budget.
Professional mechanics, as well as home handymen will love the complete selection of KD tools, made by Danaher Corp., which also manufactures Craftsman, Napa, Snap-On, and several other top tool lines.
At Carquest, you’ll also find a full line of Echo lawn and yard products, from string trimmers, to chain saws to leaf blowers, and all the repair and replacements parts for them.
Carquest Auto Parts will have everything from windshield wipers, to water pumps, to hydraulic jacks, to Echo lawn and yard equipment to Teklite dive lights and strobes. With a commitment to customer service, they will take care of your needs one way or the other.
Store hours will be from 8am to 7pm Monday through Saturday.
Everyone is invited to the grand opening tomorrow, Saturday, June 26, starting at 8am at Carquest Auto Parts, located across from the U.S. Post Office in Chalan Kanoa.
