Bangkok--12 Mar--ABM
Goodyear Thailand recently held its annual dealer conference in Bangkok to further support the company's branded retail channel network, Goodyear Autocare, and to express its strong appreciation to its nationwide dealers for their support. The Goodyear Autocare retail service center format remains a core component of Goodyear's strategy of offering all Thai motorists nationwide a comprehensive and reliable range of innovative products and convenient and high-quality tire and auto maintenance services.
This is also an important year and cause for double the celebration, in recognition of the 120th year of Goodyear global and the 50th anniversary of Goodyear Thailand. Goodyear Thailand was established in 1968 and started manufacturing tires in Thailand in 1969 for export markets and Thai domestic market
This year's theme is "A Golden Year with Great Friendships," which recognizes the solid achievements in 2017 for Goodyear Thailand and its dealer network. More than 300 dealers from all across Thailand, many of whom have owned multiple Autocare stores for many years, attended the conference.
Goodyear Thailand remains a leading brand and in a strong position to tap into further growth opportunities. The company remains as focused as ever on ensuring that Thai consumers continue to have the best driving experience with the best-in-class Goodyear tires.
Mr. Finbarr O'Connor, Managing Director of Goodyear Thailand, reflected on Goodyear Thailand's positive performance in light of a sluggish overall economy in the past year, noting that in light of the milestone 50th year of operations, the future looks very promising, and Goodyear full support to ensure dealer/partnership achieve their growth potential.
He said that the entire Goodyear team must remain focused on continuing to build momentum, and working to enhance their capabilities and providing the best service to customers, who remain the number one priority. He especially thanked the dealers from across Thailand, along with those in attendance, for their continued passion and dedication in making this a truly Golden Year.
