November 27, 2019 – Diana Workman has accepted the position of location manager for McCarthy Tire’s commercial tire store in Harrisonburg, Virginia. She begins her duties as the store opens in its new location at 925 Pleasant Valley Road in Harrisonburg. The store offers commercial truck tire sales and service, 24-hour roadside assistance, a mounted wheel program, and tire sales and service for off-the-road, industrial, agricultural, and forestry equipment.
McCarthy Tire acquired the business from GCR Tires & Service in August 2019. It subsequently relocated the store’s operations to the Pleasant Valley Road location, which has easy access to Interstate 81 and US Route 11 and is conveniently located for local customers.
Diana was a service manager for GCR Tires & Service for several years. She transitioned to McCarthy Tire during the acquisition in August. Prior to joining GCR, Diana had a strong commercial sales background in other industries. She reports to regional operations manager Eric Taylor.
“I’m excited to have Diana on our team,” said Eric. “The new location is perfect to generate sales growth and to solidify the McCarthy Tire Service brand in the Shenandoah Valley.”
