Advance Auto Parts has announced they are closing over 500 locations nationwide and selling over 200 Advanced Auto Parts stores.

It was announced back in November that they were closing 523 corporate stores and exiting 200 independent locations, according to Chain Store Age.

Affected locations will be closed by mid-2025.

Advance Auto Parts says it's part of its strategic plan to improve business performance with a focus on core retail improvements. The store closures should be completed within the coming months.
