WHO WE ARE (and what makes us different)
.
Chris Mullins Tyres was founded in May 2008 as a partnership between Chris Mullins and John Price, two friends who have worked together since starting out in the tyre trade on leaving school.
We've long believed that it was possible to sell top quality products at low prices without the high pressure selling techniques that so many of the national fast-fit chains use. We recognised the truth in the old saying that "people deal with people", and we knew that, along with top quality products, most customers simply want honest, impartial advice, impeccable service and low prices - without the need to haggle! And if they could have a pleasant, air conditioned waiting room with comfy chairs, refreshments, TVs, WiFi and amusements for the kids, then so much the better. Not rocket science, as they say, so why was nobody doing it?
In January 2009, having been joined by some incredibly talented and loyal former colleagues (Paul, Sam, Turbo, Steve - take a bow!), we opened the doors of our Riga Wharf, Bristol Road premises and began to put our business model to the test.
Our offer clearly struck a chord with local motorists and the business took off, but after just 6 years of trading we'd outgrown Riga Wharf, so the search was on for new premises. The ideal site became available just 100 metres down Bristol Road, so after a quick (??) £250,000 refurbishment and the installation of new equipment, the next stage of our journey began.
And what a journey it's proving to be. Now employing 14 staff, our new premises and equipment are proving to be worth every penny and now allow us to work more efficiently whilst offering our customers facilities that are genuinely second to none.
