AKRON (Sept. 23, 2004) — Goodyear said it has refocused its retreading business model and linked all of its functions under a new leader.
Joe Zekoski has been named director of retread systems. He has served as director of commercial and farm tire technology since 2001 and was general manager for sales and marketing in retreading from 1996 to 1998.
Steve McClellan, vice president of Goodyear's commercial tire systems in North America, said Mr. Zekoski's appointment “formalizes the linkage of all functions that are required to make better decisions that advance the company's retread business.”
