The Shepherd Company

Over 60 years ago Ken Shepherd created the “Kenneth L. Shepherd Company” with the idea of providing exceptional sales and service for the automotive aftermarket to the Rocky Mountain region. Ken’s goal was to create a business concept that served the manufacturing sector as well as the dealer/jobber using “push through” and “pull through” selling. Back then the core of our business was primarily serving the automotive aftermarket and providing an avenue for the manufacturer to place their products into the automotive jobbers inventory and onto their store shelves. It was our mission to foster those relationships and keep those channels of supply and demand open and active for all parties involved.

Throughout the last 60 + years the marketplace has rapidly evolved, transformed and morphed into many specialized segments and The Shepherd Company has adapted right alongside. In 1989 they became a corporation with headquarters in Denver, Colorado, went through multiple expansions, added new territories, new accounts and additional sales associates. Today they have the ability to cover the entire United States (via a strategic partner), however, their core business still services Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming. The one constant throughout their evolution has been their dedication to their founder’s ideals of providing exceptional sales and service, representing themselves and their suppliers in a professional manner and fostering long term relationships with their business partners
