Two Canadian companies, OK Tire Stores Inc. and Groupe Touchette Inc., announced a tire distribution partnership to improve customer service, boost distribution capabilities, and strengthen presence in communities across Canada.
OK Tire operates as one of Canada’s largest independent tire and auto service retailer. Groupe Touchette is one of the country’s top Canadian-owned tire distributor.
Canadian Tire Distribution Partnership Provides Improved Service
Starting June 9, the companies say Canadian drivers will benefit from more product availability and quicker deliveries.
“This partnership reflects our shared dedication to quality, reliability, and innovation,” said Shayne Casey, Chairman of the Board of Directors and interim CEO & President of OK Tire. “We are proud to partner with Groupe Touchette. It’s a brand that understands this is about more than just business. It’s about delivering the level of service Canadians deserve. We believe true innovation comes from working with like-minded partners who understand that we offer more than just tires—we offer solutions.”
Streamlining Operations with Logistics Strength
Both companies will operate independently under this new agreement. Groupe Touchette will act as the official distributor for OK Tire, using its network of more than 40 distribution centers. This move will improve delivery speed and customer support.
“We see this partnership as a natural evolution in our mission to deliver value to customers across Canada,” said Paul Hyshka, Associate Vice-President Sales, Independent and Commercial at Groupe Touchette. “We’re reinforcing what matters most — reliable access to quality products, timely service, and strong support for local businesses. Together, we are creating a more agile, responsive supply chain that puts the customer first.”
