In 1956 Bill Fountain opened our first store in Wainwright, Alberta. In the beginning, Fountain Tire existed only as a double-bay garage in Wainwright, Alberta. Then it spread, across Alberta, across the Prairies, and now across Canada.
At Fountain Tire, partnerships are a core element of our DNA. Our unique 50/50 model provides our local managers the opportunity to own 50% of their store by partnering with Fountain Tire.
In 1987 we partnered with Goodyear Canada, one of the world’s leading tire manufacturers. Goodyear’s established marketing presence and our reputation as a leading Canadian tire retailer helped us both flourish.
