Black Star Increases Distribution in France
The Mobivia Group-owned retail chain, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, will be offering retreaded tyres, in around twenty centres in the Paris Sud region of France and on its website, an approach which it says is in line with its commitments in terms of sustainable development and the circular economy.
