New Delhi: In a bid to empower in the male-dominated tyre industry, CEAT Tyres has introduced the concept of only women operated CEAT Shoppes across India. The shoppes will be owned, managed and run by a team of women. The first such shoppe has opened in Punjab’s Bhatinda. Ten more such shoppes will be opened in the next few months across India.
The all-women CEAT Shoppes includes a women’s workforce for all service-related assistance to customers. This also includes manual jobs like wheel changing, balancing and operating various machinery to service a vehicle. CEAT will be investing in providing end to end training to the women running the CEAT Shoppes, News18 reported.

From shop-floor engineers to leadership roles, CEAT has a diversified female workforce taking up challenging roles and growing in their respective fields. The all-Women CEAT Shoppe is an industry-first initiative which further reiterates our commitment to allow women to grow and make a mark in the Tyre Industry which is predominantly male-driven business,” Amit Tolani, Chief Marketing Officer, CEAT was quoted as saying.
