SCRAP TIRE DISPOSAL AND USED TIRES INDUSTRY SEES MEGA FIRMS AQUIRING THE LITTLE GUYS IN TRUE WAYNE HUIZENGA STYLE
Not overnight but it seems like it.The scrap tire disposal and Used Tire industry seem to have a "Buy Out" Hungry group of Heavy Hitters.
The industry which was always fragmented and consisted of hundreds if not thousands of independent tire collectors and processors had it's big players Lakin Tire, Lakin General, Emmanuel Tire, Casings Inc amongst others.With the rapid expansion by Liberty Tire and the entry of LKQ corp recently the industry has seen one player Liberty Tire gobble up many many tire recyclers and tire collectors including some of the aforementioned Big Players forming a network of outlets recycling about one third of Americas scrap tires over 100 Million per year.
What will these takeovers mean in the future to the tire industry as a whole?? Will there be one giant amongst all of the old independents ?
Is this the best thing to keep moving forward with recycling of Americas discarded tires a lot of progress has been made in the last twenty years to rid America of illegal tire dump sites and assure for proper tire disposal.
What will become of tipping fees if anyone company has too much influence?
What will happen to the price of crumb rubber,shredded material and used tires if any one company controls the marker??????
