Not all of the recent news in the tire industry has been negative. The latest edition of MTD Senior Editor Mike Manges' "Tire Talk with Mike" blog examines a positive development: the opening of Service Tire Truck Centers' (STTC) newest retread plant.
The 85,000-square-foot facility in York, Pa., which also includes a full-service truck tire center, opened on Feb. 2.
STTC co-owner Walt Dealtrey Jr. "has never balked at doing what's best for his business," even during tough times, Manges writes.
For more information about the innovative facility and where it fits in STTC's long-term strategy, see "Tire Talk with Mike" on www.moderntiredealer.com ("Recession...what recession? It's full speed ahead for Dealtrey.")
