Family owned and operated Tire Discounters plans to open several new locations in the greater Chattanooga region in the coming months.
Outlets in Hixson, Brainerd and Fort Oglethorpe are expected to open this fall with additional locations being added by the end of 2015.
Tire Discounters recently opened a second distribution center in Murfreesboro.
"Based on the great success we have had in Nashville over the past year and the growth in Chattanooga, we think this will be a strong market for us," said Tire Discounters CEO Paul Brunner. "We'd love to have eight or nine locations in the Chattanooga market, however, our focus is not on just trying to be the biggest. Rather, we want to make sure we get the right people in place and build our business on world-class customer service."
Tire Discounters now has over 1,000 employees, nearly 100 stores and will soon have a presence in seven major cities. The company expects to have approximately 60 jobs in Chattanooga created by the end of 2015.
Tire Discounters is currently seeking to hire sales people, management trainees, mechanics and technicians of all experience levels across the region. Interested candidates can apply online at www.tirediscounters.com/careers.
