Celebrating 70 years of continued success
ESTABLISHED in 1952, Central Tyre Service have received accolades from the Greater Shepparton business community after being named Hall of Fame inductees at the 2022 White King – Pental Triple M Business Awards last Friday evening.
A pillar of our local automotive industry, their exemplary customer service, professionalism, and business acumen were acknowledged amongst friends, peers in the business community and as a result of their widespread clientele and reputation, many of their customers.
Co-director Rod Poliness put it best when he described how the past 70 years has seen new generations of customers return to use their services.
“So many of our customers grew up with their parents, and grandparents, coming to Central Tyre Service. When they get their first vehicle, they’re told “now this is where you go, they’ll sort it out”, and that’s three generations of that, on the cusp of four and beyond, that have continued to come back to us time and time again,” said Rod.
“We are so grateful for 70 years of support from the Greater Shepparton community, and we strive to continue to be leaders in our field.”
Co-directors Rod Poliness and Tim Webb have both clocked up many years with the business, Rod at 33 years, Tim at 23 years, and lead a team of 18 staff members, most of which have an average of 15 years tenure with the business themselves.
With a busy workshop booked far in advance, the company has recently invested in two additional, fully equipped mobile service vehicles, increasing their capacity to deliver efficient onsite service and backup to the regions transport and agricultural industries. Whether it be cars, trucks or tractor tyres, the team is able to provide field service to meet all needs.
Co-director Timothy Webb was equally thrilled with the award and looks forward to what the future holds.
“Thank you to everyone, from our loyal and new customers alike, through to those who make these awards possible. We are a part of such a strong business community here in Greater Shepparton and it is an honour to be recognised amongst other long-standing businesses for our passion and commitment to delivering the best outcomes for our customers,” said Timothy.
