O’Reilly Auto Parts
Lakeland

O’Reilly Auto Parts, one of the largest specialty retailers of automotive aftermarket parts and tools in the country, opened a new distribution center and warehouse in Lakeland that could create up to 300 jobs and will generate millions of dollars in capital investments in the community.

O’Reilly currently operates more than 90 stores in Florida, 30 of which opened within the past year. We see great opportunities to continue to expand our store base throughout Florida, and our new distribution center in Lakeland will provide us with the springboard necessary to successfully execute that growth.
