The Art Fisher Memorial Award, Federated’s most prestigious honor, was presented to Chris Bodh, owner and CEO of Federated member Arch Auto Parts. Bodh received his award last month at The Group’s annual membership conference and expo held in National Harbor, Maryland. 

The Art Fisher Memorial award is the highest recognition available to our membership and this year the award is being presented to a Federated member, Chris Bodh, who has demonstrated outstanding dedication to the overall goals and objectives of the Federated group,” said Bo Fisher, chairman of Federated Auto Parts. “Although the award is presented as an annual award, it really recognizes the long-term dedication that Chris has provided through his support, involvement, counsel and loyalty to the Federated group. My dad would have been very proud to give recognition to Chris, who has worked hard and shared the same passion for Federated, our membership and our industry, as he did.”

Bodh currently serves on the Federated executive committee and has been instrumental in the continued growth of Federated and The Group. A Federated member since 2014, Arch Auto Parts has 21 locally owned and operated stores in New York located throughout Brooklyn, The Bronx, Queens and Long Island. 

Named after Federated founder Art Fisher, the Art Fisher Memorial Award is presented annually to a member of the Federated family who has demonstrated unwavering dedication to the success of Federated Auto Parts, its members and initiatives. Award recipients also have a history of sharing their time and expertise for the benefit of all members and have served in industry roles, representing the interests of the Federated membership.
