Don't be fooled by this company's modest name: Canadian Tire sells a lot more than tires. About 475 Canadian Tire general merchandise stores run by a network of associate dealers throughout Canada sell automotive, home, and sports and leisure products, including bicycles. The company's 85 PartSource auto parts stores cater to knowledgeable automotive "do-it-yourselfers" and small garage owners. The Canadian retailer also operates the 375-store Mark's Work Wearhouse chain. In addition, Canadian Tire is the country's largest independent gasoline retailer through its Canadian Tire Petroleum subsidiary. Martha Billes, daughter of the company's founder A.J. Billes, controls Canadian Tire.
