JK Tyre Expands Rural Presence with 'Steel Wheels' Initiative
New retail centres to launch across six states, offering tyre-related services and supporting local entrepreneurs.
JK Tyre & Industries Ltd. has launched its ‘JK Tyre Steel Wheels’ initiative in Farrukhnagar, Haryana, as part of its strategy to expand into rural towns with populations of one lakh or less. The company will extend the programme over the next three months across Haryana, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and Telangana, with a nationwide rollout planned later this year.
The new centres serve as one-stop destinations for tyre-related services, showcasing JK Tyre’s product range across different segments. Customers will have access to pricing benefits, warranties, tyre changing services, and wheel balancing. A key feature is the instant claim facility for non-truck tyres, marking a first for these regions.
The initiative aligns with JK Tyre’s plan to strengthen its last-mile distribution network, addressing growing demand in rural and semi-urban markets. The company is collaborating with local entrepreneurs to manage and expand these centres within their communities, integrating them into its national distribution network.
JK Tyre operates 900+ exclusive Brand Shops and over 6,000+ channel partners nationwide, offering 800 SKUs to serve existing and new customers.
