Plans for the Nokian Tyres Dayton, Tennessee, facility are in preliminary stages and we are incredibly excited about this amazing opportunity to produce tires in our first North American factory. Having just made this announcement, Nokian Tyres is at the very beginning of the planning phase. As Nokian Tyres moves from this initial approval to the in-depth planning, into construction and eventually staffing, we look to keep the community informed and involved with our progress.
