Michelin, Love’s Sign Agreement on Truck Tires, Service

Michelin Americas Truck Tires and Love’s Travel Stops have signed an agreement under which Love’s Travel Stops will feature Michelin truck tires and related products, the two said Thursday.

Love’s also expand services offered at many locations to include tire and emergency road service, the companies said in a statement.

“For over four decades, Love’s Travel Stops has grown with the trucking industry,” said Guy Pekle, Michelin’s vice president of replacement sales. “Their commitment to providing outstanding service to the trucking community mirrors that of Michelin, which makes this agreement very beneficial for truckers coast-to-coast.”
 
“Before the end of 2009, we will have enabled 100 locations to carry the new Love’s Tire Care banner and offer emergency road service along their key access corridors as well as tire sales and services,” said Kevin McCarthy, Love’s divisional manager of tire sales and services.

Love’s has more than 200 locations.
