The expansion supports Bridgestone’s focus on enhancing retail presence in key cities by offering interactive tyre buying experiences and services to meet the evolving needs of urban vehicle owners.
Bridgestone India, a subsidiary of the global tyre manufacturer Bridgestone Corporation, has expanded its retail footprint in Hyderabad with the launch of four new Select stores. With this addition, the company now operates 46 Select outlets in the city.
The newly opened stores are part of Bridgestone India’s efforts to meet increasing consumer demand for quality tyre services and products. Designed to enhance the overall customer experience, the stores offer interactive services that help customers understand the benefits of tyre maintenance and selection.
Commenting on the development, Hiroshi Yoshizane, Managing Director of Bridgestone India, said that Hyderabad continues to be a significant market. He added that the Select store model not only benefits consumers by offering tailored solutions but also provides dealers with a differentiated retail format to attract more customers.
Nationally, Bridgestone has a network of 3,200 dealers, including 820 Select stores, located in cities such as New Delhi, Ghaziabad, Bangalore, Kolhapur, Chennai, and Hyderabad. The Select outlets are intended to provide consistent service and support across locations, making it easier for consumers to choose suitable tyres and access related services.
