      By Counterman
      Hahn Automotive Warehouse announced the passing of General Manager Bobby Scheer, a key member of the founding Scheer family, former owners of Prime Automotive. The company said he passed away peacefully on April 2, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of dedication, hard work and a passion for both family and business that inspired all who knew him.

      “The Hahn family, along with all those whose lives were touched by Bobby’s leadership, friendship and generosity, will miss him dearly.

      BCA Bearings Announces Summer Trails Promotion
      By Counterman
      NTN, the parent company of BCA Bearings, has announced the launch of BCA’s 2025 Summer Trails promotion. During the promotion, BCA’s warehouse distributor customers can earn BCA-branded, premium merchandise with orders of BCA wheel hub assemblies, bearings, and seals.
      “We are excited to introduce the BCA Summer Trails promotion,” said Patrick Cronin, marketing manager, automotive aftermarket. “The Summer Trails theme inspires the spirit of adventure and exploration that we all strive for when we venture off the beaten path on a summer excursion. We look forward to a wonderful season and another fantastic promotion.”
      BCA’s Summer Trails promotion enables distributor customers to earn tiered packages of BCA-branded merchandise with qualifying orders, which they can then use to conduct their own localized promotions. This allows the BCA-branded merchandise to reach every level of the distribution channel, from the parts professionals and service advisors who recommend BCA products to the technicians who install them.
      The Summer Trails theme embodies an outdoorsy sense of rustic, off-road discovery, bringing us into nature during the summer months. The promo items complement this theme perfectly: a baseball cap and rain poncho provide cover from sun and rain, while a bandana offers versatility for many needs. An extendable roaster is perfect for hot dogs and marshmallows around the campfire, and a stainless mug helps keep you hydrated on the trail. A survival knife comes in handy when you need a sharp edge, and a beach towel and dry bag keep you and your gear dry. A camp chair and hammock help you relax in camp or your backyard, and a waterproof Bluetooth speaker provides the soundtrack to summer. Hit the Summer Trails with BCA!
      BCA’s 2025 Summer Trails promotion runs from April 1 through June 15, 2025. For participation details, please contact a BCA Sales Representative or Customer Relations Advocate.
