McCarthy Tire Service Acquires Terry-Haggerty Tire Company

AUGUST 11, 2014 – McCarthy Tire Service has purchased Terry-Haggerty Tire Company, a family-owned business based in Albany, New York. The acquisition includes two outlets – a combined commercial and retail tire shop and a Bandag retread manufacturing plant.

Terry-Haggerty Tire Company has been in the tire industry for six decades. Its core business is servicing truck fleets in upstate New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Vermont, and Connecticut. It also handles tire service for off-the-road equipment, construction vehicles, farm equipment, as well as tire and mechanical services for light trucks and passenger vehicles.

“Terry-Haggerty Tire is one of the best tire dealers in Albany,” says John D. McCarthy Jr., president of McCarthy Tire Company. “Coupled with our acquisition of Main Tire Exchange in 2012, we’ve really bolstered our service and production capabilities in upstate New York.”

The acquisition will add about 30 employees to McCarthy Tire’s roster, bringing the company’s employee count to 970.

“Jim and Tom Terry were in business for 65 years. We have picked up some great people and a lot of great customers. They were wonderful people to deal with throughout this transaction,” notes McCarthy.

McCarthy Tire plans to upgrade the retread plant with new equipment, purchase new trucks for the service fleet, and give the store’s showroom a facelift

The store is located at 980 Broadway in Albany, New York, 12204, with easy access to I-787, the New York State Thruway (I-90), and NY-9. The phone number, answered 24 hours a day, is 518-449-5185.

According to Modern Tire Dealer magazine, McCarthy Tire Service is the 6th largest independent commercial tire dealer and the 8th largest independent retreader in the United States for 2014.
