The National Tire and Rubber Co.

What The National Tire and Rubber Co. does

The National Tire and Rubber Co. is a privately held, family-owned commercial tire sales and service business operating from a single retail and service location at 13600 Broadway Avenue in Garfield Heights, Ohio. Founded in 1992, the company serves business-to-business customers in the Northeast Ohio region, with a primary focus on commercial fleet operators who require tire supply, installation, repair, and maintenance to minimize vehicle downtime. The company carries a broad portfolio of commercial tire brands including Michelin, Bridgestone, Goodyear, Continental, Cooper, Hankook, and Pirelli, alongside retread programs that extend tire life and reduce total cost of ownership for fleet customers.

Beyond core tire sales, the company has built a diversified service portfolio that includes 24/7 mobile fleet service with on-call service vehicles for roadside assistance, heavy-duty truck alignments, industrial press operations, rubber tracks for heavy equipment, and specialized Off The Road (OTR) tire service for construction equipment such as loaders and dozers. Secondary service lines cover lawn and garden equipment tires. The mobile service fleet allows the company to reach customers at their locations, targeting enterprise fleet operators who cannot bring vehicles to the shop. The company holds BBB accreditation and TIA (Tire Industry Association) industry designation.

The business model is revenue-light on technology and asset-light on physical infrastructure beyond the single shop and mobile service vehicles. Revenue is generated through product markup on tire sales and fee-based professional services for installation, repair, alignments, and retreading. Pricing is quote-based with free quotes offered for new tire installations, and there is no disclosed digital commerce, subscription model, or technology platform. The firm employs approximately 8 people, operates in a single geographic market, and has no institutional funding, parent company, or public market presence.
