Snider Tire opens sixth MRT retreading facility
US based commercial tyre dealer Snider Tire has begun producing retreads at its sixth Michelin Retread Technologies (MRT) retread plant. The new facility is located at the company’s headquarters in Greensboro, North Carolina. Snider Tire became an MRT franchisee in May 2009, starting with two MRT retread plants, and has opened or acquired four additional MRT plants during the past two years.
“Snider Tire and MRT retreads are a great match for our customers,” said John K. Snider, president and CEO of Snider Tire. “Since we started in 1976, our people have always been focused on providing our customers the best possible products and services to help lower their operating costs.”
“Snider Tire has long been recognised for the quality of its people and service to the fleets,” commented Francois Corbin, COO of Michelin Americas Truck Tires. “With its latest MRT plant, John Snider and his team will help us continue to improve the quality and consistency of MRT commercial truck services for fleet customers.” Bill Guzick, vice president of business development for Michelin Americas Truck Tires, added: “Combining Snider Tire’s service with MRT’s advanced retread process and products will be a great complement to the franchise network. Michelin’s commitment to fleets is that they will never be out of reach of Michelin-certified service and products – including quality retreads. Snider Tire is a key component in that customer promise.”
Since its establishment 14 years ago the Michelin Retread Technologies Network has grown to include 44 franchise members and 78 retreading plants in North America.
