Goodyear Orient Company (Private) Limited (GOCPL), a wholly-owned USA subsidiary was registered in India on December 1917. Prior to establishing its own buying operation, Goodyear had been buying rubber in the Far East through a British trading company.

Based in India, Goodyear Orient Company (Private) Limited (GOCPL) manages the Natural Rubber (NR) purchasing, delivery, financing and quality for the worldwide operations associated with The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company along with Sumitomo Rubber Industries (SRI).


In 1964, Goodyear opened a sales office in India to supply tyres to the local market and to support the regional aviation business.

In 1986 the R&D Laboratory was built as part of an ongoing program to ensure the processors continued to supply suitable quality Natural Rubber that was in accordance with Goodyear’s requirements. The Quality program is maintained today by the GOCPL QA Inspectorate who performs regular processor visits and tests numerous samples as part of the processor evaluation process.

Today, Goodyear India Tyres (GS Tyres), a division of Goodyear Orient (Company) Private Limited continues to supply the local passenger market through Distributors as well as supporting the aviation business and performing various export activities for the region.
