Kumho Tyres have a reputation synonymous with quality and reliability and are always on the lookout for like-minded service centres and tyre outlets to join their ranks. And it is for these reasons that they have chosen Bowers Suspension in Merewether as their next Platinum store.
This upgrade will give Bowers and their customers extra support, product and branding from Kumho, while still being locally owned and operated. This will enhance Bowers local business that has been servicing the community in Newcastle and surrounding areas for over 37 years.
Craig Bower is excited about the opportunity to work with Kumho, and says after taking over the family owned business 20 years ago, this is the next chapter in the Bowers story. “We have been in the area for decades and we like to think people associate our business with excellent service,” Craig said. “This partnership with Kumho is an extension of our service offering and will be great for the local area.”
Kumho Australia’s National Trade Marketing Manager, Glenn Pearse, says Bowers Suspension was chosen as a Kumho Platinum store because of their professionalism and strong track record in customer service within the Newcastle community.
“Bowers Suspension are a leader in customer service and have a long and positive reputation in the Hunter region,” Glenn explained. “The team at Bowers have all displayed the level of professionalism that Kumho is known for and we’re very happy to partner with them.”
The Platinum Dealer program was created to showcase Kumho’s quality product line of passenger car, SUV, 4x4 and commercial vehicle tyres in contemporary customer centred locations with off street parking and family friendly waiting areas, equipped with TV and tea and coffee facilities. The Kumho Platinum Dealer program was launched in October 2011 and has since grown to just under 50 stores across Australia.
Kumho has succeeded in the development of superior tyres for all vehicles including high performance passenger cars, sports utilities and 4X4s as well as trucks, buses, mining and even aircraft.
