GOODYEAR'S BEGINNINGS
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company was founded in 1898 by 38-year-old Frank Seiberling.
He purchased our first plant with a $3,500 down payment using money he borrowed from a brother-in-law.
The timing couldn't have been better. The bicycle craze of the 1890s was booming. The horseless carriage was a wide-open challenge.
On Aug. 29, 1898, Goodyear was incorporated with a capital stock of $100,000. |

GOODYEAR'S LOGO
Our winged-foot trademark was inspired by a newel-post statuette of the Roman god Mercury in the home of Goodyear founder Frank Seiberling.
Seiberling felt Mercury embodied many of the characteristics for which Goodyear products were known. |

Goodyear's innovative tires are built incorporating a variety of relevant technologies that instill confidence in consumers regardless of the driving conditions they might face. Simply put, Goodyear helps drivers GET THERE, wherever their destination may be!
Goodyear's strategic charitable giving reflects our internal corporate values, and therefore our primary funding is awarded to organizations whose initiatives relate to one or more of the following areas: driving and transportation; tires; or children and families. We are particularly open to requests from organizations that provide innovative solutions that make and/or keep the citizens in the communities where Goodyear employees live, work and play, safe and secure. Additionally, the majority of approved grants provide funding to programs that remind citizens that Goodyear tires are the best choice for their diverse transportation needs. |
