Turnover: 28.59 billion EUR (2022)

Country: France

  • A member of the exclusive club of 40 companies listed on the CAC 40, Michelin has been contributing to France's economic influence abroad since 1889, thanks to its tire production.
  • The company's strength lies in its ability to innovate in order to maintain market leadership:
    • Radial carcass tire, in 1968, allowing lower fuel consumption thanks to its construction.
    • PAX system in 1996, a rim + tire assembly that limits the pressure exerted on the tire, replaced today by the brand's "self-supporting" system: Michelin ZP.
    • Sales of tires for two-wheeled vehicles represent only a few hundred million €. This activity remains marginal in the Group's sales
