In response to rising international traffic, Yokohama Rubber has switched its corporate website to a new domain. Effective 25 April, the existing yrc.co.jp/global/ domain has been superseded by the new http://www.y-yokohama.com/global/ address. The introduction of this new domain follows the addition of further language options to Yokohama Rubber’s main site.
On 25 March, the Yokohama Rubber Co. Ltd. announced it has reached an agreement with global investment firm KKR and three other parties to purchase all shares in Alliance Tire Group (ATG) for an agreed equity value of US$1,179 million. The transaction is expected to be finalised on 1 July 2016, after the completion of all necessary closing procedures, including regulatory approvals.
