Toyo Relocating Head Office to Mark 70th Anniversary

As part of activities celebrating the 70th anniversary in August 2015 of Toyo Tire & Rubber Co.’s establishment, Toyo Tires will build a new head office building in Itami, Hyogo Prefecture, and will relocate company headquarters next to its Tire Technical Center.

The new headquarters – which will house 350 employees in roughly 8,000 square meters – will be built on a vacant lot on the site of Toyo’s Tire Technical Center, which will place it adjacent to the company’s technology development center. The headquarters will be about a 20-minute drive from the company’s new R&D center in Kawanishi, which is slated to open in November this year.

The new management team inaugurated last month has established a management theme of “boosting corporate strength and sustained, innovative, continuous growth.” The headquarters relocation is positioned as a critical foundation for further solidifying the company’s corporate strength, according to Toyo, allowing the company to “further boost its internal unity and mobility as it aims to achieve sustainable, innovative growth.”

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."
