Bridgestone keeps NR Evans contract rolling
Tyre manufacturer Bridgestone has announced the retention of a long-standing contract with temperature-controlled distribution specialist NR Evans.
The company, which delivers more than £500 million worth of chilled product annually, has extended its ten-year relationship with Bridgestone following a competitive tender process, during which Bridgestone underlined the benefits of its Total Tyre Care package.
NR Evans’ managing director Neil Evans (pictured, left) said: “Millimetre for millimetre and pence per kilometre, Bridgestone offered an outstanding repair and breakdown service, which was too compelling to overlook.
“The fact that you can manage all tyre related matters online, coupled with Bridgestone’s ever-helpful staff, all added up to a complete value-for-money package.”
Bridgestone’s fleet sales manager Paul Emery, added: “The extension of our partnership with NR Evans is brilliant news for everyone concerned with Bridgestone. We have enjoyed a close, long term relationship with NR Evans and we were keen to demonstrate our value in as many ways as possible.”
He continued: “We are genuinely proud of our Total Tyre Care offering, which represents a flexible range of tyre programmes, providing a care-free response to every fleet manager’s needs. We believe it gives us a big advantage over our competitors.”
Total Tyre Care is built around three key offerings: Total Tyre Life, which offers premium new tyres and retreads; Total Tyre Services, providing professional tyre maintenance and assistannce throughout Europe; and Total Tyre Systems, offering inspection tools, customised reports and innovative technologies, including the ToolBox app and Bridgestone’s tyre pressure monitoring system.
