Arch Auto Parts

HOLLIS, N.Y., Dec. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Arch Auto Parts, a leading aftermarket retail and wholesale auto parts supplier in Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island, NY is celebrating its 40th anniversary with a video billboard in Times Square. Throughout the holidays, including the famous New Year's Eve celebration, millions of New Yorkers seeing the ad are discovering they have a local alternative to the big chain stores, where they can find higher quality car parts for domestic and import cars, at lower prices, from the best automotive brands. Locally-owned Arch Auto Parts, with neighborhood stores in Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island, provides '50,000+ OE-quality parts and low prices. NY-Fast!™' The ad spotlights OE-quality parts Arch stocks from Bosch and DENSO, two of the most important original equipment manufacturers (OEM) for the world's automotive industry.

"When your friend turns 40, you throw them a big party. When your business turns 40, you get a billboard in Times Square and celebrate at one of the world's biggest parties," laughs Chris Bodh, Owner and CEO. The Arch Auto Parts ad is running November 15, 2018, through January 31, 2019, at 1500 Broadway and 43rd St., in the heart of the Times Square bowtie area, above the pedestrian-friendly Times Square Plaza. This is where the ball drops on New Year's Eve, the concerts are staged, and a worldwide audience estimated at over a billion people watch on television as they ring in the New Year.

Last year on New Year's Eve alone, approximately 2 million people were packed into Times Square, and most of them were there all day to guarantee a spot before the festivities began. Even on typical days, hundreds of thousands of people pass through Times Square daily, and the billboards are one of the main attractions. This year, these commuters, holiday shoppers and New Year's Eve revelers will see Arch Auto Parts on one of the biggest platforms in the world.

The billboard wraps around a high corner building on Broadway, significantly increasing the visibility of this winter-themed ad. The left side of the billboard animates Arch Auto Parts' "Right parts, Right now®" service promise, with a car that stutter-stops in front of an Arch Auto Parts store. Exactly the right parts fly out the door, self-install under the hood, and the car zooms off, "NY-Fast!™"

The right side of the billboard features Bosch and DENSO, two of Arch Auto Parts' top suppliers. The first video is for Bosch ICON™ windshield wiper blades, an excellent wiper for improving visibility in winter sleet and snow. Next, the DENSO ad for spark plugs encourages shivering viewers, "If the weather outside is frightful, let's go find your happy place." "With DENSO, you're ready." as a classic cruiser drives down a sunny beach. These ad components all work together to communicate that this winter, Arch Auto Parts is where to find OE-quality auto parts from top name brands.

In NYC, there is a constant flow of traffic between the boroughs. This is especially true on weekdays, with the population of Manhattan nearly doubling from 1.6 million to 3.1 million people on a typical workday. Many of these commuters come in from Brooklyn, Queens, and Nassau County where Arch Auto Parts has a large presence. These areas also have a high concentration of repair shops, so naturally, it is a destination for buying auto parts.

Arch Auto Parts has been a local favorite with top-rated repair shops for high-quality parts and low prices for four decades. More recently, Arch has been increasing awareness among retail shoppers. So far in 2018, Arch Auto Parts has received over 440 reviews on Google averaging 4.4 stars out of five. "We know from our experience and data that once they're in the door, we will likely have a long-term customer. This billboard is helping get the word out that Arch Auto Parts has the name brand, OE-quality parts, fast service and low prices shoppers want," notes Lucy Henner, VP Marketing, Arch Auto Parts.

      *After this statement was released, Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum announced on X (formerly Twitter) that the U.S. and Mexico have reached an agreement to delay tariffs for a month. In exchange, Mexico will be putting 10,000 National Guard troops on the Mexico/U.S. border as conversations between the countries continue.
      On Saturday, Feb. 1, 2025, President Trump issued
      link hidden, please login to view imposing tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico and China. The tariffs were implemented under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), citing a national emergency related to illegal immigration and flow of illicit drugs like fentanyl into the U.S. Bill Hanvey, president and CEO,
      link hidden, please login to view, emphasized the serious impact the proposed tariffs would have on the automotive aftermarket industry, U.S. consumers and businesses: As of the morning of Feb. 3, only the Executive Order for Canada has been officially published on the White House’s website. The Executive Orders for Mexico and China are pending official release; however, unofficial copies indicate they follow a similar framework to the Canada order.
      Key Details of the Executive Order
      International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA)
      IEEPA is a federal law granting the President authority to counter unusual and extraordinary threats to national security without requiring congressional approval or extensive agency review. While historically, IEEPA has been used to impose economic sanctions, this is the first time IEEPA is being used to impose tariffs.
      IEEPA requires the president to “consult” with Congress “in every possible instance” before taking action. While the president can act unilaterally, they must provide regular reports to Congress on the actions taken.
      Tariff Rates and Products
      The Executive Orders do not list specific products subject to the tariffs but states that the tariff applies to all goods which are “products of” these countries.
      The new tariff rates below apply “in addition to any other duties, fees, exactions or charges” applicable to imported products. In other words, these tariffs will be applied on top of any existing import duties or tariffs already in effect.
      Canada: 25% tariff applies to imports from Canada, with energy products subject to a reduced 10% tariff. Mexico: 25% tariff applies to imports from Mexico. China: 10% tariff applies to imports from China. Implementation Date
      The tariffs apply to goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on Feb. 4, 2025.
      Goods loaded onto vessels at the port of loading or in transit on the final mode of transportation prior to entry into the United States before 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on Feb. 1, 2025, are not subject to the additional duty, subject to certification requirements with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
      Exemptions
      The Executive Orders do not outline any exceptions nor establish an exemption process. The Executive Order also states that the tariffs will remain in effect until the President determines that the countries have taken “sufficient action to alleviate the crisis.”
      Retaliation Clause
      The executive order states that if Canada, Mexico and/or China retaliate against the United States, President Trump may increase or expand the scope of the duties imposed under this order.
      Drawback
      Drawback (duty refunds) will not be available.
      De Minimis Treatment
      Duty-free de minimis treatment will not be available.
      Responses from Affected Countries
      Canada: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau 
      link hidden, please login to view that Canada will impose retaliatory tariffs of 25% on $155 billion U.S. goods. Tariffs on $30 billion will take effect on Tuesday, Feb. 4.

Tariffs will apply to a range of U.S. exports, including alcoholic beverages, agricultural products, clothing, sports equipment and household appliances.
