Growth Drives Toyo's Georgia Plant Expansion
Monday, January 5th, 2015
Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp.'s growth the past couple of years necessitated the firm's decision to expand its tire plant in White, Ga., company executives said in an interview during the recent Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show in Las Vegas.
“We've had significant growth in 2013 and 2014, and our growth really is stunted by capacity. That's why we have made the major investments in White, Ga.,” said Roy Bromfield, Toyo's chief operating officer, noting “the company is not afraid to add additional capacity in the U.S. because we really are one of the key markets for Toyo worldwide.” Toyo Tire & Rubber Co.'s tire sales in North America are estimated at $1.2 billion.
