O'Reilly is a concentrated auto-parts engine: the money comes from replacement and maintenance parts sold to drivers and repair shops. Repair shops are becoming the larger customer group, while young networks in Mexico and Canada are the clearest attempt to add another leg.

Professional Service Provider Customer Program
Repair shops and fleets are now the faster-moving half of the business. Their share reached 50.5% in fiscal 2026's second quarter; watch whether delivery speed and parts availability keep them ahead.
Competes with AutoZone Commercial and AutoZonePro.com (AutoZone) · NAPA wholesale and NAPA Auto Care (Genuine Parts Company)
In plain English
A broken car sitting on a garage lift is a clock: the shop cannot finish the job or free the bay until the right part arrives. O'Reilly sells to repair shops and fleets, then uses nearby stores and delivery routes to bring over what they need quickly.
The shop pays for each part, often buys on credit, and can order through OReillyPro.com or software it already uses to run repairs. Local salespeople, training, and help managing shelf stock make O'Reilly harder to replace. These orders earn a little less per sale than do-it-yourself purchases, but they tend to come more often.
Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Customer Business
Drivers buying parts for their own cars remain nearly half the business, but this side is growing more slowly. Its share slipped to 47.8% in fiscal 2026's second quarter as harder jobs moved toward repair shops.
Competes with AutoZone retail stores and AutoZone.com (AutoZone) · Advance Auto Parts stores and AdvanceAutoParts.com (Advance Auto Parts)
In plain English
Picture a driver with a dead battery, a worn wiper, or a warning light and no desire to wait days for a shipment. The driver visits a store or OReillyAuto.com, finds the part made for that exact vehicle, and pays at checkout.
O'Reilly wins the sale by keeping common parts nearby and helping the customer work out what is wrong. Testing, advice, simple installation help, and borrowed tools can turn uncertainty into a purchase. The customer may return as the same car ages, though increasingly complicated repairs can send that work—and the parts order—to a professional garage instead.
Proprietary Private Label Products
O'Reilly's own product lines, including Precision, Murray, and Syntec, account for more than half of sales across both customer groups. They give O'Reilly more control; quality, supply choices, and warranty performance must hold up.
Competes with Duralast family (AutoZone) · Carquest, DieHard, Driveworks, and Wearever (Advance Auto Parts)
In plain English
The name on the box matters here. Alongside national brands, O'Reilly sells parts and supplies under product names it controls, such as Precision chassis parts, Murray temperature-control products, and Syntec oil. These are store-owned alternatives, not a separate checkout lane.
A driver or repair shop pays for the product just as it would for any other part. O'Reilly chooses the range, works with manufacturers to make it, and keeps more control over price and availability. That only works if the part fits, lasts, and can be sourced from dependable makers when one supplier stumbles.
Strategic Regional Tiered Distribution Network
Warehouses and regional hubs let each store offer far more than it can keep on its own shelves. More than 95% of stores received several deliveries a day at FY2025 year-end; execution and working cash are the watchpoints.
Competes with Distribution-center, hub, and mega-hub network (AutoZone) · NAPA/UAP distribution system (Genuine Parts Company)
In plain English
Most neighborhood stores cannot hold every part for every vehicle. O'Reilly solves that with layers: a store keeps common items, a nearby hub holds much more, and a large warehouse holds the broadest range. Company vehicles shuttle parts down those layers when local shelves come up empty.
Customers still pay for parts, not for the delivery web itself. Its value is rescuing a sale that would otherwise walk away and helping a repair shop finish an urgent job. The system depends on choosing the right stock, moving it reliably, and paying for buildings, vehicles, workers, and goods before a new location settles in.
O'Reilly Auto Parts México
Mexico is the larger of O'Reilly's two young foreign networks. It reached 126 stores by June 2026, but sales remain too small to separate; watch new stores mature against a far larger incumbent.
Competes with AutoZone México store network (AutoZone) · Carquest independent stores in Mexico (Advance Auto Parts)
In plain English
Mexico is the younger store network. O'Reilly entered by buying Mayasa in 2019, then added locations that sell replacement and maintenance parts to local drivers and repair shops. It is the familiar parts-store model planted in a market where O'Reilly is still small.
Money arrives one purchase at a time, while each opening needs a building, workers, stocked shelves, and dependable replenishment before it can mature. The network can grow through more stores and fuller local ranges, but imports, currency moves, regulation, and AutoZone México's much larger footprint make expansion a patient build rather than an instant second engine.
Groupe Del Vasto (Vast-Auto Distribution) / O'Reilly Auto Parts Canada
The Canadian foothold combines stores, wholesale customers, and an eastern distribution network bought in 2024. It had reached 28 stores by June 2026 after its first newly built location; integration and local coverage matter most.
Competes with NAPA/UAP Canada (Genuine Parts Company) · Carquest Canada (Advance Auto Parts)
In plain English
O'Reilly bought an existing eastern Canadian distributor rather than beginning with an empty map. Groupe Del Vasto brought warehouses, smaller supply points, stores, and independent parts sellers that already served repair shops and motorists; new O'Reilly Auto Parts locations now extend that base.
Revenue comes from parts sold through company stores and from supplying independent sellers for resale. The acquired network offers a head start, but O'Reilly still has to join its systems, carry the right local range, and make new stores productive. Access to vehicle repair data also matters as diagnosing a car depends more on software.
OReillyAuto.com and OReillyPro.com
The consumer and repair-shop sites help buyers find the correct part and connect the order to nearby stock. O'Reilly does not reveal online sales, so the test is whether digital searches become local purchases rather than a separate business.
Competes with AutoZone.com and AutoZonePro.com (AutoZone) · AdvanceAutoParts.com and Advance Professional digital ordering (Advance Auto Parts)
In plain English
The websites are the front door to the shelves. A driver enters a vehicle and searches for a matching part, then chooses pickup or shipping. A repair shop sees nearby stock through OReillyPro.com or its usual shop software and can send an order without calling around.
The buyer pays for the same physical part sold in a store; O'Reilly does not charge separately for the search or ordering tools. Their job is to make a complicated catalog easier to navigate and route demand to stock already nearby. Accurate vehicle matching, current shelf counts, payment handling, and dependable delivery keep that front door useful.
O'Reilly Auto Parts Store Services & Features
Testing, simple installation help, recycling, and tool loans turn a puzzling car problem into a parts purchase. Most help is free or uses a refundable deposit; staff training, safe handling, and working equipment determine whether it converts visits.
Competes with Fix Finder and Loan-A-Tool (AutoZone) · Free testing, code scanning, installation, and Loaner Tool (Advance Auto Parts)
In plain English
Sometimes the customer knows the car feels wrong but not which box will fix it. Store staff can scan a warning code, test a battery or electrical system, help with selected simple installations, recycle old parts, or lend a rarely needed tool against a deposit.
Most of that help brings in no fee by itself. It earns its keep when a diagnosis leads to the correct part, a borrowed tool makes the repair possible, or convenient recycling brings the shopper through the door. A few specialist jobs are paid, but the central purpose is confidence and product sales.
