“Several factors make the increase necessary,
unfortunately,” says Rick Phillips, director of
commercial sales. “The costs of raw materials,
manufacturing and transportation remain at highly
elevated levels. These, regrettably, have to be
reflected in our product pricing,” he reports.
“Notwithstanding,” says Phillips, “Yokohama remains
steadfast in bringing the best commercial tires to
market at competitive prices using our operational
efficiencies and latest technology.”
