South Africa’s Tyre Dealer and Fitment Association (TDAFA) recently named Apollo Tyres South Africa its "Tyre Manufacturer of the Year" at its annual gala dinner. The South African manufacturer of the Dunlop tire brand received this distinction based upon its performance in a tri-annual TDAFA members’ survey in which manufacturers are nominated in five key criteria: product quality, customer service, stock rotation, availability and warranties.
“We are very honored to accept this award,” said Apollo Tyres South Africa CEO Luis Ceneviz. “We see it as a fantastic reward for the effort we have put into bringing the ‘Driven by Precision’ positioning of our Dunlop tire brand to life. We’re striving for a culture of excellence every aspect of our operations, from manufacture and distribution, to the service customers receive from our sales offices and consultants, and this award indicates that we are getting it right.
“Dunlop tires are manufactured by Apollo Tyres South Africa in the state of the art factories in Kwa Zulu Natal,” he added. “The distribution of Dunlop tires is channelled through the Dunlop Zone retail outlets, which are available countrywide. What makes it more memorable for us is that this award represents acknowledgement from our colleagues within the South African fitment industry that Apollo Tyres South Africa is delivering on our promise of premium products, performance and service to our customers and end-users.” (Tyres & Accessories)
