Goodyear Middle East & Africa (MEA) has announced that it is actively seeking the right distributor and service provider to expand its reach within Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) as part of its growth strategy..
With over 125 years of global experience in tyre manufacturing, Goodyear has established itself as a trusted and reliable provider of top performing OTR tyres for a wide range of construction and mining applications. The company’s OTR portfolio includes tyres for haul trucks, loaders, graders, and other heavy machinery.
Goodyear MEA said the ideal distributor and service provider should be a proven player in the tyre industry, have an established distribution network, and a deep understanding of the local OTR tyre market.
The successful distributor and service provider will have non-exclusive rights to sell Goodyear OTR tyres within Zambia and DRC, and benefit from the company’s extensive product range, marketing support, and technical expertise.
“Goodyear’s OTR tyre solutions, some of which are manufactured right here in Africa, are engineered to the highest quality and performance standards,” said Jeandre Bezuidenhout, OTR Manager Emerging Markets of Goodyear. “We are looking to partner and grow with a distributor & service provider who shares our commitment to high quality and customer service and is well-versed in supporting end-users to overcome the unique challenges within mining and construction operations.”
