Our heritage:

At the age of 18 Sukhpal raised £5,000 with help from his father and the bank and set up a car parts shop in North London.

Sukhpal remains an active member of the business having operated as Executive Chairman for the UK business and has more recently joined the main LKQ board in the States as Executive Director. His entrepreneurial flair, passion, high energy, resilience, tenacity and a “will to win” are still intrinsic to the culture of the business.
