The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company today announced that Curt J. Andersson has been named president of the company’s North American Tire business unit. Andersson, currently president of Cooper Crouse-Hinds of Syracuse, N.Y., succeeds Richard J. Kramer who was elected Goodyear’s chief operating officer in June 2009.
In celebration of Goodyear’s 111th anniversary, the company is recognizing its most significant moments in history with a compilation of “Goodyear’s top 111 innovations, inspirations and historic firsts.” The list reflects Goodyear’s pioneering spirit of innovation throughout the years, which has been felt across the earth, the skies and even the moon.
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and the United Steelworkers (USW) have reached tentative agreement on a new master contract covering about 10,300 employees at seven tire plants in the United States. The Union is expected to schedule ratification votes at all plants in the coming days.
