    Goodyear is extending the full capabilities of its Commercial Total Solution to carriers of all sizes in Convoy’s Digital Freight Network in an effort to help truck drivers reduce costs and optimize road time.

    The company said this is the first online discount program it has offered through its commercial e-commerce platform at goodyeartrucktires.com.

    “Goodyear is excited to collaborate with Convoy to offer carriers of all sizes access to our trusted products, premiere service network and complete tire management solutions,” said Johnny McIntosh, Goodyear’s director of integrated solutions and tire management. “Carriers can now get the tires they need at competitive prices with a seamless purchase experience through Convoy’s connection to Goodyear’s e-commerce system.”

    Convoy’s technology platform connects shippers with independent carriers, small fleets and owner/operators, who will now have access to Goodyear’s full commercial truck tire portfolio. This includes online discounts on tires at goodyeartrucktires.com, an exclusive service line through FleetHQ to request 24/7 emergency roadside assistance and access to Goodyear’s network of 2,300 service locations throughout North America.

    “We’re thrilled to build on our relationship with Goodyear, one of the most trusted brands in the world,” said Brooks McMahon, Convoy’s vice president of partnerships. “This partnership provides carriers in Convoy’s network with unparalleled access to Goodyear’s online platform and roadside assistance program, at a time when they need that support and assistance the most.”

    Goodyear’s e-commerce platform is an extension of its consumer platform. For more details or to take advantage of this national account program, visit convoy.com/carrier-benefits/goodyear.
