TIRES MAKER * USA: Yokohama's opens first U.S tire plant

* Mississippi - Yokohama takes aim at North American

-- Yokohama Tire this week celebrated the opening of its new US$300 million, one million square foot commercial truck tire facility in West Point, MS... As of now, the company has hired more than 260 employees and plans to eventually reach 500. Constructed on more than 500 acres of land, the plant houses manufacturing, warehousing and operations facilities, and will produce up to one million tires annually when running at full capacity... Currently, most of the commercial truck tires Yokohama sells in North America are sourced from its plant in Thailand. Some production is drawn from Japan as well as from the GTY Tire Co. plant in Mount Vernon, IL, that was set up back in 1988 to jointly produce General, Toyo and Yokohama truck tires...
