The difference between lockdowns 1 and 2 for the tyre trade
“The bounce back [since the first lockdown] has been incredible” and independents have “faired really well in this period” and are down less than the market as a whole, Micheldever Tyre Services wholesale director, Graham Mitchell said recently (Photo: Tyre Industry Publications Ltd)
A couple of weeks after the end of the UK’s second lockdown, Tyres & Accessories spoke with Micheldever Tyre Services wholesale director Graham Mitchell. Since Mitchell was part of the panel in our inaugural “Kickstarting your tyre business” webinar in May 2020 at the end of the first lockdown, we thought it would be good to catch up at the end of the year and compare the differences between the first and second lockdowns. In short, while many shops closed during the first lockdown, the vast majority were open for business during the second. We also discussed 2020 as a whole and looked forward to 2021.
