About Sumitomo Tires
| Sumitomo has always been the exception to
the rule. Our uncommon attributes not only separate us from other brands,
they give our dealers unrivaled advantages. On one hand, Sumitomo is a major worldwide brand, respected on every continent for technological excellence. On the other, we are positioned as a dealer-oriented profit-builder, a first-tier br& at second-tier pricing. Because Sumitomo Tire is not a manufacturer, we do not have a volume perspective. We are not involved in disruptive channels, OE, & mass merchants that drain inventory & drain our dealers' abilities to compete. Yet, our products come from one of the world's acknowledged quality-focused manufacturers. Because we look at the long-term, we develop relationships that are mutually beneficial & responsible. At the same time, our distribution has grown by leaps & bounds over the last two years. That growth has come because we operate on the same philosophy as you, & place prime importance on taking care of our dealers first. A simple, common sense approach to business keeps our dealers competitive. We offer controlled & consistent programs & pricing across the board, for every dealer in every territory. Sumitomo Tire presents a distribution plan that both protects the integrity of your business & optimizes our brand-building opportunities. In that way, you face less same-br& competition & can profitably grow your business. Sumitomo is one of the world's largest & oldest tire companies. You can count on every tire to deliver the utmost quality, outstanding on-road performance, & highly profitable showroom appeal. We deliver the highest fill rates possible with our unique container program made to order with the products you want.
