The Tire Retread Information Bureau (TRIB) will be providing free shoeshines to all attendees at the upcoming World Tire Expo to be held in Louisville, Ky., April 20-22, 2005.
"In years past the TRIB shoeshine stand was always a big hit and we expect to be polishing the image of lots of our friends at the World Tire Expo next month. David Kolman and I will both be swinging our rags and brushes and the recipients of our work will need sunglasses to cut down on the glare after we get done with their shoes," said Harvey Brodsky, TRIB's managing director.
The shoe shines will have a Brazilian flavor this year thanks to TRIB member Associação Brasileira do Segmento de Reforma de Pneus (The Brazilian Retreaders Assn.), the sponsor of the TRIB shoe shine stand.
All attendees at the World Tire Expo are invited to stop by the TRIB booth and have their image polished, compliments of The Brazilian Retreaders Association and TRIB.
For more information, contact the Tire Retread Information Bureau toll free at (888) 473-8732, or by e-mail: info@retread.org.
