McCarthy Tire Service purchased Dice’s Tire, a single location in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, from owners Sherrie Fisher and Trey Wible.
“I’ve been in the tire business for 39 years and am so very proud of my team and what we’ve built. I’m also thrilled to be able to transition our family business to another family-owned business, Fisher said. “I thank my team, our vendors and our customers for their dedication and find comfort in knowing that they’re in very good hands with the McCarthy Tire team."
Dice’s Tire Service originated in 1918 as a tire shop in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, and opened a second location on Carlisle Pike in the 70s, selling tires and retread tires. The family-owned business was ultimately operated by three generations under one roof.
This acquisition also includes a Bandag retread plant that brings the McCarthy Tire Service retread plant count total to 14.
Most operational Dice’s Tire Service teammates will stay on with McCarthy Tire.
“We’re excited for this family owned and operated business to join the McCarthy team” said John D. McCarthy Jr., President of McCarthy Tire Service. “Not only will we be better positioned to serve the Harrisburg market, but it also increases our retread production capacity; delivering tremendous value to both our customers and the communities in which we operate."
While McCarthy Tire Service already has a strong presence in Pennsylvania, this acquisition enables the company to take a more comprehensive commercial and retread service approach in the Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, market.
