In announcing the appointment, Tim Sanders, Continental general manager for Oceania, said: “We are very pleased that Tyres4U has accepted our proposal to distribute the Conti and Barum range of tyres in New Zealand. We have a long relationship with the group and with Tyres4U NZ now distributing our passenger range it lines up perfectly with the Tyres4U Australian operation and the products they have been selling for over 30 years.”
General manager of Tyres4U New Zealand Perry Scarfe commented: “The Tyres4U philosophy has been to grow our business through supporting our dealers. We have an intent that we want to be ‘the easiest organisation to do business with’ and all our staff work with this foremost in their mind. Adding Continental passenger and light truck tyres to our range backs up our commitment to be the easiest organisation by consolidating ourselves as a one stop shop for the dealer to buy their tyres.”
