Origin of the word aftermarket

The term "aftermarket" originated in the early 20th century in the automotive industry. It referred to the market for spare parts and accessories for vehicles after their initial purchase, or "after" the initial sale of the vehicle. Over time, the term has expanded to include many other industries beyond automotive, such as aerospace, heavy equipment, and construction equipment. Initially, "aftermarket" referred to the sale of replacement parts, maintenance supplies, and performance enhancing add-ons for vehicles, such as spark plugs, air filters, and exhaust systems. Today, the term encompasses a wide range of goods and services, including warranty extensions, maintenance programs, and upgrade options for vehicles and equipment. As the aftermarket has grown and evolved, it has become an essential component of many industries, providing customers with options for customizing, maintaining, and upgrading their products.
