The company’s export lines cover a vast range of different brands, prices and grades of tyre, from passenger car and light truck tyres to very large off-the-road and speciality tyres. Hercules’ own brands include Hercules, Merit, Electra and Ironman – all of which are manufactured in the USA and China.

Hercules Tire International understands that many countries have unique needs, and the company says it has the experience, products, sizes and pricing needed to make its customers’ tyre trading a success. It also has the ability to work very closely with banks, export trade financing organizations, and governments, to ensure that all products comply with a country’s restrictions and individual needs. The staff speaks a multiplicity of languages, so they know the cultures and the problems people face in other countries.

Hercules Tire International’s exclusive contracts with many major tyre companies – combined with its global tyre sourcing – gives it the ability to supply customers with the tyres they want at the prices they need. The in-house freight forwarder, Shiprite Freight Forwarding, will ensure that all documentation is correct and that customers enjoy the best freight rates possible.  

Hercules Tire International is pleased to be at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg, South Africa, with one of its major distributors, Nexusco Africa, for the Tyrexpo Africa 2006 show. Nexusco has years of trading experience in Africa and intends to use its South African distribution capabilities as a springboard for introducing Hercules tyres throughout southern Africa.

Among the exhibits on the Hercules/Nexusco booth is the exciting new Ironman line of tyres. The Ironman line includes Type H, Type T, Type V, Commercial and Radial A/T tyres.  Says Hercules Tire International: "We’re excited about our new brand of tyres…and we know you will be, too!"
