Advance Auto Parts Purchases North Augusta Property for $4M Market Hub Location

Advance Auto Parts bought the former Lidl grocery store in North Augusta for $4.05 million in December 2025, per The Post and Courier. The Roanoke, Va.-based company will convert the property into one of its new Market Hub stores.

The location at 417 East Martintown Road will carry three to four times the inventory selection compared to regular stores. The site will serve DIY customers, professional buyers, and other nearby locations.

The North Augusta hub will carry batteries, brakes, filters, fluids, and tools, according to a company news release. Free services will include wiper blade installation, battery testing and installation, battery and oil recycling, check engine light scanning, loaner tools, and starter and alternator testing.

The Raleigh-based retailer announced in March 2025 that it had finished closing stores as part of its nationwide retail footprint optimization. The company then started a new phase focused on opening locations.

This North Augusta facility represents one of 10-15 Market Hubs that the company plans to open this year. The auto parts chain also plans to launch 40-45 standard stores in 2026.

The expansion represents an ongoing effort to establish more than 100 distribution points through 2027. The company operates two smaller stores in North Augusta.
