Founded in 1930, the NTDA is a strongly proactive trade association representing and promoting the interests of the tyre wholesale, distribution and retail sectors of the automotive aftercare market.

The NTDA has now announced the finalists for its 2018 Tyre Industry Awards. The awards will be presented at a ceremony sponsored by tyre manufacturer Sailun which will take place at the Association’s 89th Annual Dinner on 4th October at the DoubleTree by Hilton, Milton Keynes. The dinner will be hosted by TV personality and sports presenter Mark Durden-Smith.

Speaking about the finalists, NTDA Chief Executive Stefan Hay said:
“Once again we’ve had a great response to the awards. Lots of different companies have entered including some of our newer members and we are also really delighted to have the support of three new sponsors this year. Of course, we would love to see more of our tyre distributors engaging with the awards and entering their businesses and technicians across the many categories and to be honest we’re surprised they haven’t, but nevertheless, with over 500 guests already booked for the dinner and close to 200 for the Tyre Industry Conference sponsored by DG International, which precedes the dinner, I’m sure the event will be fantastic and, once again, one to remember!”

Protyre have been shortlisted for the following awards:
