Leading tyre manufacturer Kumho Tyre has continued the expansion of its Platinum Dealer program in Brisbane with the opening of Deception Bay Tyre and Mechanical.

Launched in New South Wales in late 2011, the Platinum Dealer initiative has been designed to showcase Kumho's extensive product range through a national network of dedicated professional and friendly retailers.

According to Kumho Tyre National Trade Manager, Glenn Pearse, the Brisbane region is an important market to the brand and an opportunity for growth.

"The opening of a new store in Brisbane's north is a demonstration of Kumho's ongoing commitment to creating a dealer network that represents the highest levels of customer service and the best value for money," said Glenn Pearse.

Deception Bay Tyre and Mechanical is located at 151 Maine Terrace, Deception Bay and features family friendly waiting areas and off street parking.

Owner Anthony Little says his team is capable of providing the Deception Bay region with heightened service and value.

"We're proud to be appointed to the Kumho Platinum Dealer program because Deception Bay Tyre and Mechanical shares the same values of delivering the best service, expertise and value," said Anthony Little.

"We believe Kumho's range of passenger, SUV and 4x4 tyres equates to quality at an affordable price and there is a tyre for all applications," he added.

Kumho is a proud supporter of the McGrath Foundation and holds an annual Pink Fitters Day as a fundraiser for the charity. Deception Bay Tyre and Mechanical played a key role in the 2014 event on Friday 2nd May.

Since its inception in 1960, Kumho Tyre has been a model of steady growth amid dramatic changes of business landscape. Driven by innovation in management and technical development Kumho has become one of the top ten tyre companies in the world.
