South Korean mega-corporation Daewoo International Corp., involved in everything from construction to automobiles, is now in the tire business.
The company took a display at last week’s SEMA Show to demonstrate its new line of Daewoo-branded passenger, light truck/SUV, medium truck and OTR radials. Daewoo plans to offer the lines around the globe, including North America.
Daewoo said initially it will focus on medium truck and OTR tires in North America and work on a container-load basis. Moving forward, it plans to evaluate future warehousing and distribution needs based on customer requirements and opportunities.
