Tyrepress is at the National Tyre Distributors Association’s Tyre Industry Conference 2025 today, which has assembled a programme of presentations in which UK tyre industry leaders are taking the temperature of the current market and offering insights from throughout the distribution chain. The morning session featured the tyre management, distribution and retail sector, with presentations from Direct Tyre Management, Micheldever Group and Protyre, and Stapletons (Tyre Services). The session began with NTDA national chairman Martin O’Brien welcoming delegates and supporters to the conference, while Ian Andrew introduced himself as a the (relatively) new chief executive – he is still in his first 100 days – outlining his initial priority of making the association and the wider tyre sector “more visible”. Tyrepress blogged the event live on its X profile, @Tyrepress, using the hashtags #TIC2025 and #NTDA.
