As part of its "wherever you go" initiative to expand its on-highway service network, Michelin has signed up Professional Transportation Partners to offer Michelin products.


Michelin and PTP signed an agreement officially including 180 PTP-affiliated member travel plazas, truckstops and shop facilities in Michelin's "wherever you go" initiative.

"We have been doing great business for years with many individual PTP locations," said Guy Pekle, vice president of sales, Michelin Americas Truck Tires. "This agreement allows us to translate the success that we have built with individual truckstops to the entire PTP network across the continent."

"Michelin is bringing innovative technology to the marketplace in the form of tires that save fuel, save weight, or just plain run longer than any other tires in the marketplace," said Michael Gay, director of shop programs, PTP. "We've received plenty of positive feedback from individual members about doing business with Michelin. We are pleased to expand the business opportunities to all of our members through this agreement."

The agreement between Michelin and PTP became effective Sept. 1, 2008, and should be complete at all 180 PTP shop locations by the end of 2008.
