    Sumitomo Rubber plans to expand tire production capacity at its South Africa plant A few days ago, Japan's Sumitomo Rubber Industries said it plans to increase truck and bus (TBR) radial tire production capacity
    at its Leadsmith plant in South Africa to meet growing demand

    The plant was acquired by Sumitomo Rubber from India's Apollo Tire Company in 2013 and is operated
