Michelin North America’s newly released 2011 "fact sheet" reports regional sales of $8.2 billion for the tiremaker in 2010, a 17.1% increase on a year earlier and 34% of Groupe Michelin’s total global sales.
Last year Michelin employed approximately 21,400 people in the North America region, some 500 more than in 2009. This small growth in employee numbers occurred in the U.S. and Canada, with the employee head count dipping slightly in Mexico. (Tyres & Accessories)
