Born on Boxing Day.
"The real cost is not the tyre — it's how it's managed over time."
I'll be honest with you — I know very little about tyres.
What I do know, after 40 years in business, is how to recognise talent, build a proposition and bring commercial discipline to an opportunity.
My son-in-law has been part of our family for nearly 20 years. Over Christmas 2025 I noticed a restlessness in him — so I listened. He talked about the fleet tyre world, where the money was being lost, why operators were paying far more than they needed to, and what structured oversight could do about it.
By Boxing Day evening the idea had a name. We registered Origin Tyre Management Ltd that night.
He brings over 10 years of hands-on fleet tyre expertise at the highest level — he knows exactly where the value is being lost and what it takes to recover it. I bring 40 years of commercial experience — running businesses, managing European markets, and knowing how to turn a good idea into a credible proposition.
We are not a software platform. We are not a tyre supplier. We are two people who between us have exactly the experience your fleet needs — and we are completely independent of the suppliers you already use.
That's the honest version. And we think honest is the right way to do business. 🎩
