About Summit Motor Products

Six decades of knowing
what your shop needs.

A second-generation distributorship built on personalised service, deep product knowledge and a simple promise — we work for you.

Our Story

Started in 1966.
Still here for the same reason.

Summit Motor Products was founded in 1966 as a specialist automotive parts distributorship. From the beginning, the focus was never on being the biggest — it was on being the most useful. Knowing the right part, having it in stock and getting it to the right shop fast.

Over sixty years and two generations, that focus hasn’t changed. We’ve grown our coverage to 14 states east of the Mississippi and our catalogue to over 10,000 products — but the way we operate remains the same. No call centres. No automated queues. Salespeople who visit your shop, understand your operation and come back with answers.

We serve new car dealerships, body shops, fleet shops and marinas — operations that can’t afford to wait on the wrong part or deal with a supplier that doesn’t know the difference. That’s the gap Summit Motor Products was built to fill, and it’s the gap we still fill today.

Summit Motor Products is powered by Raycap Holdings LLC — a strategic partnership that brings additional technical depth, operational resources and expanded capability to an already established distribution network, without changing what made SMP worth partnering with in the first place.

Why Summit Motor Products

The things that haven’t changed
in sixty years.

01

Application knowledge you can rely on

Six decades in one industry means we know which part fits which vehicle, which chemical works in which environment and which supplier actually delivers. That knowledge isn’t in a catalogue — it’s in the people who answer your calls and visit your shop.

02

Service that comes to you

We schedule salesperson visits because some conversations are better in person. When a rep walks your shop floor, they understand your operation in a way no online order form can replicate — and the recommendations that follow reflect that.

03

Stock depth that prevents delays

Over 10,000 products across 19 categories means the part your shop needs is almost certainly already in our inventory. We stock deep on purpose — because a supplier who runs out at the wrong moment isn’t really a supplier at all.
