In a move to redefine its distribution network, JK Tyre & Industries Ltd., a leading name in the tyre industry, unveiled its 鈥楯K Tyre Steel Wheels鈥� in Farrukhnagar, Haryana as part of the company鈥檚 focused expansion into rural India targeting towns with populations of 100,000 or less.
The company will be kicking off the Rural expansion programme across Haryana, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Telangana over the next three months. The initiative will be scaled up with a nationwide rollout later this year.
Designed as a one-stop destination for tyre-related needs, the centre showcases the entire range of JK Tyre products across segments.

Anshuman Singhania, Managing Director, JK Tyre & Industries Ltd, said, "Our Rural expansion programme will help us to reach the interiors of the real Bharat that are economically vibrant but often under-served. We are not just building retail points; we are also enabling entrepreneurship and access. These centres will offer our full range of tyres and will act as vital touchpoints for our brand, delivering consistency, convenience, and confidence to a fast-rising consumer base across India鈥檚 heartland.鈥�
