About Kal Tire
Tom Foord built Kal Tire based on his fundamental belief that the supply of top quality products at a fair price, backed by superior service, will produce customer satisfaction. It's what has come to be known as "True Service". His first customers in 1953 appreciated the way he conducted his business from his shop in Vernon, B.C., just as – more... his customers today appreciate the product, prices, service and guaranteed satisfaction provided at more than 200 Kal Tire outlets throught Western and Central Canada. Kal Tire is a wholly-owned Canadian company still based in Vernon, B.C. and operated by a functional zone management structure that focuses on customer service and teamwork. The real difference at Kal Tire is our people. Kal Tire people are the most caring problem solvers in the business. Our long time involvement in the tire industry has gained its people the knowledge, training and experience to deliver True Service. Whether it be in mine haulage tires, off the road logging and industrial tires, fleet transportation, farm or personal use vehicle tires, Kal Tire has what it takes to be the leader in the tire sales and service industry.
