Michelin in Canada

In 1969, Francois Michelin decided to expand his company to North America. Of all the places he could have built a manufacturing base, he chose Canada – for the proximity to the market, for the access to shipping routes, and most importantly, for the quality of the people who live here. 

Fast forward 50 years and Michelin is now the largest tire manufacturing employer in Canada, with sites across Nova Scotia and Quebec. One thing that has stayed the same though: our unwavering commitment to our values: Respect for the Customer and Shareholder, People, Facts, and the Environment.

We invite you to share our adventure as we innovate to improve sustainable mobility!

Michelin uses innovative technologies to produce and create new products. Our manufacturing facilities include production activities that depend on automation, high-precision technologies, information technologies and control systems. Employees work on empowered teams to make decisions quickly to resolve problems. This is accomplished by employees developing trusting and demanding interactions. Employees develop new competencies through coaching and training that generate increased performance, progress and innovation.
