APA announced Axon US as the newest addition to TruStar. Founded in 2008, Axon US began with a small office in Midtown Manhattan and a basement workspace in Long Island City. Its founder, Siyao Ji, started Axon independently, building the company from the ground up. He established the company with a clear vision: to create a streamlined supply chain system that efficiently meets the needs of the auto industry.
Axon initially operated solely as an online retailer but expanded its presence to better serve customers through offline channels. In 2021, the company moved into a 20,000 sq. ft. warehouse in Queens to accommodate its growing inventory and improve order fulfillment. Today, Axon US serves both online and offline customers through its warehouse showroom, with plans to open a dedicated brick-and-mortar store that is aiming to open in Q4.

Previously a salesperson for an Asian auto parts wholesale distributor, she joined Axon to deepen her understanding of the auto supply chain and continue growing in the industry. “Axon US is eager to expand its presence in the automotive industry by joining TruStar, fostering connections with other members and strengthening relationships with key brands,” said Huang.
“We are excited to welcome Axon US to the TruStar family and look forward to the collaboration and innovation they will bring to our network,” said Steve Tucker, President of APA.

line announced details of its sixth annual Mechanics Month initiative. Beginning Monday, March 3, the annual campaign celebrates what Valvoline called the often-unsung heroes of the mobility industry and beyond: the mechanics who keep the world moving forward.
According to Valvoline, this year’s theme, “The Future is in Your Hands,” shines a spotlight on mechanics across the globe, highlighting their expertise, skill and heart for the critical work they do each day. From independent workshops to dealerships, construction sites to fleets, mechanics solve problems that others can’t. Yet, fixing machinery is only part of the job; mechanics serve as educators and partners to their customers, offering peace of mind when it matters most, Valvoline said.
“Valvoline Global is proud to honor the important contributions of mechanics worldwide,” said Jamal Muashsher, chief executive officer of Valvoline Global. “Mechanics Month is about recognizing the mechanics in our local communities who not only maintain the present – but also shape the future – by keeping people around the world moving forward.”
Global Recognition of Local Mechanics

Hosting thank you dinners featuring games, prizes and live entertainment for mechanics and their families throughout Southeast Asia. Teaming up with Hendrick Motorsports for surprise deliveries of Valvoline Mechanics Month packages to hardworking team mechanics in the U.S. Working with select distributor and school partners to offer dozens of scholarships across Mexico and El Salvador. Offering brand and product training to over 200 mechanics and various scholarship programs and initiatives throughout China. The company will also feature mechanics in global web and social media spotlights during the month of March.
Grand Prix Meets Gratitude
As the Official Lubricant Partner of the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One® (AMAF1) Team, Valvoline Global will further collaborate with its AMAF1 partner to highlight the importance of continuously building a pipeline of talented mechanics.
For the second year in a row, AMAF1 will participate in Valvoline Global’s Aspiring Mechanics Program as they invite students from Milton Keynes College (United Kingdom) to learn from F1 mechanics.
The Valvoline Global Aspiring Mechanics Program, established in 2024, is focused on educating and supporting future mechanics as they grow their skills. Through this program, the company aims to play a direct role in minimizing the growing shortage of mechanics globally, while raising awareness of the importance of the trade, Valvoline said.
