Goodyear Dunlop announce new OTR manager

DURING last week's Hillhead show, Goodyear Dunlop Tyres announced the appointment of Pete Harper as the new head of their OTR tyre division. The change comes into place as the company takes on a new focus on its OTR business.

Mr Harper has been with the company for nearly 40 years. Moving through the ranks, his previous roles include: operations manager, sales manager and, most recently, retread manager.

He will continue to manage the retread sales in Wolverhampton, taking responsibility of replacement commercial tyre sales to the dealer network, as well as spearheading the OTR business.

'This is the next step for me within the business and I look forward to managing the OTR team,' commented Mr Harper. 'We have a new focus for our OTR business and I will be implementing this as soon as possible.'
