Goooaaaallll! Hennellys open 35th store

Dec. 5, 2012

Dan and Diane Hennelly have reached their original goal. That begs this question: "What's next?"

The Hennelly's, owners of Hennelly Tire & Auto Inc. opened their 35th Tire Choice outlet in Florida on Nov. 17, 2012. The eight-bay Bradenton store is located in the Lakewood Ranch Community in front of a Walmart store.

"Diane and I  are very proud of all of our business partners that in just eight short years and a Great Recession later, we have accomplished this lofty goal of opening 35 stores," says Dan Hennelly, chairman and CEO. "Now it is time to set our sights higher!"

Hennelly and his wife, Diane, the company's vice chairperson and CFO, opened their 34th store in The Villages in Sumter County, west of Orlando, last May.

Hennelly Tire sells Michelin, BFGoodrich, Bridgestone, Firestone, Yokohama, and Pirelli tires. The dealership is an ACCC (American Car Care Centers) member.

It is the 30th largest independent tire dealership on the Modern Tire Dealer 100 list.
