Nexen Tire gains Stellantis supplier award

Stellantis, the company created through the merger of Peugeot and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles in January, has honoured Nexen Tire at its inaugural Supplier Awards. It awarded the tyre maker for Competitiveness, one of eight categories in this year’s event. Nexen was one of two firms recognised for “outstanding performance in terms of cost savings (commercial, process, technical solutions and logistics) and their proposals for a cost reduction portfolio in line with Stellantis’ objectives.”

“We are honoured to receive this award,” said Travis Kang, global chief executive officer of Nexen Tire. “It is truly meaningful to be recognised as an exceptional supplier at Stellantis’ first supplier award event. We will continue to make progress toward becoming a growing supplier to automakers.”

Nexen Tire currently supplies tyres for several Stellantis brands, including Ram, Jeep, Fiat, and Chrysler.
