About the NTDA

Do you need a voice in the industry? Or an industry voice that can help you?

The National Tyre Distributors Association, (NTDA), offers you both.

The NTDA has been a driving force in the UK tyre trade since the Association’s formation in 1930, representing and promoting the interests of our members operating in tyre wholesale, distribution, retail, mobile fitting, and repair and across the manufacturing, retreading, and recycling sectors and the associated wheel and automotive aftercare markets. To this day, we continue to work on improving standards, the professional development of tyre technicians, supporting the industry and creating a sustainable business environment. We are a democratically constituted, non-partisan and not-for-profit trade association run by a full-time directorate in Aylesbury and exist solely for the benefit of, and to drive growth and prosperity for, our member companies and the wider tyre trade.

Our members range from the largest national retail groups with hundreds of depots, to the smallest local family run business, mobile tyre fitting companies and international tyre, wheel, and equipment manufacturers and all have a voice within the Association!

What NTDA Membership Means

Since 1930, NTDA membership has been the symbol of quality and professionalism for the UK tyre trade and a sign of reassurance recognised equally by trade customers and private motorists.

Having the right to display the distinctive ‘kneeling man’ logo not only offers a hallmark of distinction that ensures your company stands out from its peers, as in practical terms, the Association also offers tangible benefits which ensure you have the support, information and tools to stay ahead in the increasingly competitive UK tyre trade.

More than 300 individual companies representing over 2000 tyre retail outlets, automotive aftercare centres and associated aftermarket activities currently enjoy the prestige of displaying that logo and belonging to the NTDA, the UK’s largest and leading tyre and automotive aftercare trade association.

By joining the NTDA, you will benefit from a number of services which can make a real difference to your business and prove you are head and shoulders above your competitors. In return, your membership of the Association will also be contributing to the development and furtherance of the UK tyre trade by helping us, for example, to lobby on subjects such as banning the sale of part worn tyres! 

Membership of the NTDA makes your company part of an extensive trade community that offers tyre technician training, professional development and licensing, technical support, networking events and extensive Government advocacy. In short, the NTDA exists solely to make its members succeed.
