Frank Seiberling founded the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company in 1898 with just thirteen employees. The company started by producing bicycle and carriage tires in November of 1898. Goodyear was able to earn the title “The world’s largest tire company,” by 1916, just 18 years after the founding. The company adopted the slogan, “More people ride on Goodyear tires than on any other kind.” Based on sales, Goodyear became the world’s largest rubber company in 1926. Presently, Goodyear is one of the world’s largest tire companies, operating 60 plants in 26 countries worldwide. In North America and Latin America, Goodyear is the number one tire maker, and the second largest in Europe.
The Wingfoot symbol is Goodyear’s trademark symbol that is known in every country around the world. The symbol was based off the Greek God Mercury, because Seiberling felt that Mercury embodied many characteristics that Goodyear products were know for. Goodyear’s vision has always been to “Become a market-focused tire company providing superior products and services to end-users and to our channel partners, leading to superior returns for our shareholders.” For more then a century, Goodyear’s corporate values have been centered on the phrase, “Protect Our Good Name.” In the twenty-first Century, Goodyear accomplishes this goal by developing a culture in which a committed and competitive team of associates can excel.
