SG: Stamford Tyres Opens Singapore’s Largest Tyre Commercial Centre To Support Regional Operations

Stamford Tyres Corporation Limited announced the opening of its new Stamford Tyres Commercial Centre in Jurong, reinforcing its status as Singapore's largest independent tyre and wheel distributor.  The S$25 million centre which houses a tyre warehouse, truck tyre centre and tyre retreading plant will provide support for its expanding total tyre management business in the South East Asia region. Mr Wee Kok Wah, President of Stamford Tyres Corporation Limited said, “With the opening of the Commercial Centre, Stamford Tyres will be able to support the Group’s international exports of proprietary brand tyres and wheels to countries such as Russia, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Canada, Ecuador, and Tanzania. This will certainly benefit the local dealers who will now enjoy greater flexibility in distributing a mix of different types of tyres according to their customers’ needs."
