Hankook Tire & Technology has received the “Excellence in Quality and Delivery” award at Honda Motor Supplier Excellence Award ceremony held in Columbus, Ohio. 

The accolade reinforces the tire manufacturer’s position as a top-tier partner within the North American automotive supply chain, directly impacting both U.S. and Canadian retail channels.

Honda annually evaluates outstanding suppliers across North America through a comprehensive review process based on key criteria including quality, delivery, value, and innovation. Out of a total of 56 suppliers recognized this year, Hankook Tire earned high marks from Honda for its systematic quality management system, stable supply capabilities, and advanced product development competitiveness. This latest achievement marks the fifth time Hankook has been honored by Honda, following previous wins in 2016, 2018, 2020, and 2023.

Hankook Tire has maintained a strong partnership with Honda since 2013 and currently supplies original equipment (OE) tires for Honda’s primary SUV lineup, including the CR-V, HR-V, Pilot, and Passport, as well as major sedan models such as the Accord and Civic. Building on this recognition, Hankook Tire plans to further deepen its partnership with Honda while leveraging its innovative R&D capabilities and superior quality competitiveness to steadily expand its presence as a premier global brand in the North American market.

To sustain this high-volume supply chain demand, the company continues to enhance an integrated quality management system powered by big data and AI-driven technologies. This advanced infrastructure supports consistent manufacturing quality across its eight global production facilities, delivering highly engineered fitments to more than 50 global automaker brands worldwide.
