Every region is unique despite the spread of globalization. This report about the European tire (tyre) market attempts to quantify the market, pick out its main characteristics and show how it is changing. In particular it examines the growing convergence of the countries of eastern and western Europe and the significance this might have for future supply decisions.

The report starts with a brief summary of the regional background, defining it and quantifying the key economic statistics such as GDP, population, economic growth and the size of the vehicle production industry and the vehicle parc.

It then quantifies the size and growth of the tire (tyre) market and the major segments within that market, emphasizing the demand and supply equation.

Details are given of all manufacturing plants in the region and a profile is made of all tire manufacturers based in this region (although Michelin, Continental and Pirelli merit a profile of their own in Section 4.) This is followed by a review of retailing activity in the region and a final section on the trends that are taking place.

Profiles include:

	World Rank
Michelin*	1
Continental*	4
Pirelli*	5
Nokian Tyres	16
Trelleborg	35
Mitas	36
Marangoni	43
Matador	46

* These companies have a full and detailed profile in Section 4

This report is already prepared in draft form but will be individually completed for each purchaser in order to incorporate the latest news and information. In addition it may be possible to include additional information on request. The report will cost $50 and will be sent within five working days of the order.

An Apology
Half the world uses the word "tire" whilst the other half uses "tyre". Unfortunately search engines don't realise that they mean the same. In order to be recognised by the search machines we have had to resort to the irritating strategy of duplicating the two words. Sorry!
