You don’t grow as fast as we have unless you are doing something right.We currently represent more than 300 independent tire and auto service locations in 23 states across the

country. Most of our members are also shareholders of ITDG, which entitles them to receive the

“substantial” dividend payments we have issued through the years. In fact, many of our

independent dealers have reported back that joining ITDG was the smartest

business decision they have ever made.

Here is a sampling of the comments we have heard from our members:

“Profits are up because we’re

buying at such great prices.”

“Our product line is continually

growing and becoming more

diverse and that’s attracting more

customers.”

“We’re saving money buying

our workers’ comp insurance and

financing our new equipment

through ITDG programs.”

“Our customers love the

flexible terms of the ITDG credit

card program and the free one-

year roadside assistance.”

“We love the volume bonuses;

it’s like found money.”

Strength is in numbers, and the number of ITDGmemberships has doubled in the last six years.

you will have access to very attractive pricing programs with these

companies. It’s strength in numbers. And it’s the best way for you to

lower your costs and raise your margins.
