Strategic Partnership Drives Growth and New Opportunities for TireHub and Pirelli
TireHub, the national tire distributor co-founded by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (Goodyear) and Bridgestone Americas Inc. (Bridgestone), will begin distributing Pirelli tires in early 2025. The addition of Pirelli, a global tire brand known for its cutting-edge technology, high-end production excellence and passion for innovation, further reinforces TireHub’s position as the leading distributor of premium products with a broad range of top-performing tires available to dealers and retailers.
“Pirelli is a complementary strategic fit for TireHub. As a premium-focused distributor offering the full breadth and depth of Bridgestone and Goodyear products, the addition of Pirelli will enhance our ability to meet evolving customer needs and create growth opportunities for TireHub,” said Ted Becker, TireHub CEO.
Pirelli gains a robust distribution network that will expand its ability to serve customers and strengthen its presence in North America. “TireHub’s consumer-centric approach aligns seamlessly with Pirelli’s commitment to premium quality,” said Claudio Zanardo, President and CEO of Pirelli North America. “As North America represents a critical growth market for Pirelli, this partnership underscores our dedication to expanding our reach and meeting the evolving needs of customers in this region with exceptional service and premium offerings.”
The addition of Pirelli highlights the strength of TireHub’s value proposition and its ability to deliver results. “We are providing customers with access to a broad selection of premium tires while also demonstrating our ability to support suppliers with a focused distribution approach in the market,” continues Becker.
Adding Pirelli to its portfolio is the latest in a series of growth initiatives for TireHub. In the past two years, the company began distributing Mickey Thompson Tires & Wheels, opened three Regional Distribution Centers and expanded in several key markets, including opening its new Charleston, South Carolina, location earlier this month.
