American Tire Distributors’ Tire Pros program has opened its 700th franchise location after signing the five-store chain Same Day Tire & Auto Repair, located in the greater Tulsa, Okla., market.
Same Day Tire & Auto Repair, owned by Danny and Tina Smith, officially joined the Tire Pros program in late December 2015.
“We have learned a thing or two over the years about what works in this business and we’ve enjoyed a good measure of success,” Danny Smith said, “but we’re never satisfied with the levels we’ve attained and are always looking for that next rung on the ladder. We believe Tire Pros offers the opportunities and support we need to continue our climb.”
The franchise gained 65 stores in 2015, with 36% of new location growth coming from multi-store regional dealers, Tire Pros president Dan Brown said.
