Michelin Receives Supplier Awards from Vulcan Materials Company

Vulcan Materials Company Michelin Supplier Award — Michelin North America has received a gold and Platinum Supplier Award from Vulcan Materials Company.

Vulcan Materials Company — a producer of construction aggregates and other construction materials — has awarded Michelin North America, Inc., with two 2017 Supplier Awards for two product categories.

Michelin received a 2017 Gold-level Supplier Survey award for off-road tires and a Platinum-level award for on-road tires. Michelin supplies Vulcan with a range of commercial and passenger tires for Vulcan’s manufacturing operations across the country.

The award is based on feedback from plant managers at each of Vulcan’s facilities. The site managers are asked to rate their strategic alliance suppliers’ overall value. A Platinum category award is achieved from suppliers receiving an average “overall” rating of four and higher.

“Michelin has received the Gold off-road tire award for many years. But this is the first year for Michelin to achieve a Platinum award for on-road tire supply,” said Mark Reeves, key account manager of Michelin North America. “Being ranked No. 1 among all suppliers is an enormous honor. On behalf of the entire Michelin team, we appreciate the opportunity to deliver our industry-leading products with our customer service.”

Discount Tire & Service Centers has a new sponsorship deal with the Los Angeles Angels for the 2024 season. Discount Tire said this partnership will not only benefit its customers with season-long promotions and giveaways but will also support local non-profits.

"We're thrilled to launch this strategic partnership with the Los Angeles Angels," said Sergio Andonian, president, Discount Tire & Service Centers. "As neighbors, from Anaheim, we are dedicated to serving our local communities and providing quality tire & automotive service at the most competitive prices. Together, we look forward to making a positive and lasting impact in the communities. Add baseball to the mix, and with this winning combination, the possibilities are endless."
