The MEC is a forum for automotive aftermarket supplier marketing executives to collaborate on issues facing the North American manufacturer base. The MEC focuses on solving challenges and create opportunities to improve the image and strength of the North American aftermarket supplier. This is the first and remains the only council ever created strictly for aftermarket supplier marketing executives.

Spearheaded by the MEC, the AASA Know Your Parts® initiative is an industry awareness and education campaign. Know Your Parts® generates millions of visits per year from individuals searching for part installation videos, specs, and catalogs. Click here for more information on Know Your Parts®.
