The merger is expected to close on March 1, 2024.

The merger represents two industry leaders united by the common goal of providing exceptional service and expertise throughout Atlantic Canada. This collective next‐step reflects both companies’ continued dedication to their strong regional roots and their plan for expansion and enhanced service delivery.

“We are thrilled to bring together these storied companies. This merger is more than a business decision; it’s a strategic move to create the best commercial tire and automotive service network across Atlantic Canada,” said Andrew Pye, CEO of the newly formed entity. “Our combined resources, expertise, and commitment to the Atlantic community will allow us to serve our customers even better.”

The process will be measured and deliberate, ensuring that the integration of the two companies is as seamless and effective as possible. Throughout the merger, the focus for the newly created team is to maintain and enhance service delivery and support for clients. The goal is to ensure that business operations continue smoothly without any disruption to the supply chain or service delivery.

The combined leadership teams are excited for the future, the opportunities this merger presents, and are looking forward to serving customers in Atlantic Canada and beyond.
