The relationship quickly expanded to include supporting their store remodels and their new store openings nationwide.
And when the supply chain challenges hit, SASR was ready to bring its warehouse expertise to the table and provide labor for AAP’s distribution centers. Stepping up and earning trust in times of need has spurred a relationship that represents the best of SASR’s capabilities as a long-term strategic partner.Dynamic Solutions for Evolving Needs Because AAP is frequently opening new stores and remodeling existing ones, they have a consistent need for project managers and teams with expertise in installation and merchandising.

Project Managers SASR’s dedicated project managers directed and managed new store openings and remodels from planning to completion, working closely with AAP leadership to ensure all expectations, milestones, and deliverables were met. SASR project managers were also responsible for compliance with AAP policies and procedures and upholding their values and standards to drive consistency and efficiency at each store. Travel Teams SASR built teams of merchandising associates that traveled from location to location, regionally and nationally, supporting new store and remodeling projects for AAP.
They came onsite in the final weeks of the projects with expertise in installation, fixtures, displays, planograms, and general store support. Well-known in the retail industry, SASR travel teams leverage their rolling knowledge to ensure crunch-time deadlines are met and stores open on time.
