Description

Cooper Tires has had a long and interesting life starting with the founding in 1914 in Akron, Ohio by two brother-in-laws. The two men started by purchasing the M&M Company, a company that made tire patches and repair kits. The men followed that by purchasing the Giant Tire & Rubber Company so that they could start manufacturing “rebuilt” tires in Findlay, Ohio in 1917. By 1919 another investor named I.J. Cooper established the Cooper Corporation on an adjacent property and started manufacturing new tires. In 1930, the two companies merged with The Falls Rubber Company, forming The Master Tire & Rubber Company. The name was changed in 1946 to Cooper Tire & Rubber Company, and became a publicly traded company in 1960. In the twenty-first century, Cooper Tire & Rubber Company has become the world’s eight largest Tire manufacturer and one of the 350 largest companies in the United States. The company is now one of two tire companies owned by Americans.
