HALIFAX, N.S. — Michelin North America has tapped Fleet Retreading Services, a division of Miller Tire of Halifax as its third Canadian retread franchise.

Fleet Retreading Services began offering Michelin Retread Technologies Pre-Mold process earlier this year in July.

“We are very excited about this new venture,” says Marc Laferriere, sales director for Michelin Commercial Truck Tire division in Canada. “We have already signed two franchises in Quebec which are doing very well. Miller Tire’s interest in our technology enables us to expand our presence into the Maritimes, a market where demand for our products is strong.”

Michelin retread Technologies entered the North American market in the U.S. in 1997 and came to Canada three years later.
