Bridgestone Retail Operations, LLC

This month we are celebrating Technician Appreciation Month at Bridgestone Retail Operations. We are grateful for the critical role our technicians play in our retail stores across the country. From every brake repair and oil change to tire installs and more – our technicians keep cars across the country on the road with their extensive knowledge and operational excellence. On behalf of BSRO, we would like to say “THANK YOU!” to all of our technicians for your continual hard work. #TechnicianAppreciationMonth #Automotivetechnician #BridgestoneRetailOperations #BeBridgestone

We are excited to share that our team recently launched a Bridgestone Retail Operations Chapter of BNEXT, Bridgestone Americas' Employee Resource Group focused on developing the next generation of leaders. Through BSRO's chapter of BNEXT, teammates will have access to professional development, networking and mentorship opportunities across the country.

During Military Appreciation Month in May, Bridgestone Retail Operations is honored to announce a partnership with Wounded Warrior Project (WWP), an organization dedicated to empowering veterans and service members. We recognize the sacrifices that this community has made for our country, so we’re making it a point to give back. During this promotion, every set of four Firestone Tires sold at our retail locations (Firestone Complete Auto Care, Tires Plus, Hibdon Tires Plus, and Wheel Works) contributes $1 to Wounded Warrior Project, with a donation of a minimum of $50,000 and up to $100,000. For more info on how you can help us give back, please head to: https://lnkd.in/evad_7cj

Our team is at Fort Campbell with the Fort Campbell Career Skills Program today! We’re on a mission with DoD-SkillBridge to recruit outstanding military individuals with vehicle service skills to take on the next chapter of their careers by joining our crew. #BeBridgestone #skillbridge

We're excited to share our first DoD-SkillBridge Participant, Angelika (JC), graduated from the program on May 2nd! JC will start her career with Bridgestone Retail Operations, LLC as a C-Tech in one of our Firestone Complete Auto Care locations. The DoD SkillBridge program provides service members civilian work experience through internships 180 days from Transition. We're proud to partner with this organization and the Fort Campbell Career Skills Program to help service members turn their military skills into post-service careers.

Every journey starts with a single step—or in this case, a tap!

Together, we drive change. 🌱🌎 Learn more and download the My Firestone app (iOS & Android) here: https://lnkd.in/e3VuZv6p
