Big O Tires Expands

The franchise has opened its first location in North Dakota.

Big O Tires, one of North America’s largest retail tire franchisors with nearly 450 independently owned and operated locations, continues its expansion of the brand, with its first location in North Dakota. The expansion into North Dakota now extends the footprint of Big O Tires to 24 states. This is the first Big O Tires for franchisees Randy Rhone and Ben Zachmeier.

“It’s exciting to continue growing the brand alongside both new and existing franchisees and be able to serve even more customers in areas where we did not have a presence until now,” said John Kairys, vice president and general manager of Big O Tires. “We’re looking forward to a long partnership with Randy and Ben; their experience and perspective will help us deliver on our underlying foundation to be the team you trust in North Dakota.”

“This opportunity to represent the Big O Tires brand is a new and exciting venture for us,” said Zachmeier. “We looked for the right partner who would provide support and had the brand recognition that would enable us to establish our location as the team you trust in the area and we found exactly that and more with Big O Tires.”
