Despite a worldwide alliance with Sumitomo Rubber Industries designed to dominate the tire industry, The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company is the #3 tire maker in the world, behind Bridgestone and Michelin. Organized into four geographic segments, the company operates a combined 60 plants worldwide, and has about 1,600 retail tire and auto centers. Goodyear sells tires for the replacement market as well as to the world's automakers. In addition to its own brand of tires, Goodyear makes Dunlop tires for sale in North America and Europe through its alliance with Japan's Sumitomo. More than half of the company's sales come from outside North America.
