Northeast Retail Leasing & Mgmt. represents Town Fair Tire Centers
According to Dan Plotkin, principal with Northeast Retail Leasing & Management Company of Windsor, East Haven-based Town Fair Tire Centers Inc. has opened three new stores. Town Fair opened its first store in Maine at 565 Alfred St. opposite the Shops at Biddeford Crossing and the second in South Portland at 449 Western Ave. in front of Staples Plaza. A third new store opened in November at Milford Plaza, Milford, Mass.
The three new stores follow Town Fair Tire's program of locating stores in well anchored regional retail markets throughout New England. Despite the pullback among other retailer openings, Town Fair Tire continues to seek high traffic retail locations in shopping centers, existing buildings, and land for its prototype buildings averaging 7,000 s/f.
Town Fair Tire is one of New England's largest tire retailers with 70 stores in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Maine where it focuses exclusively on the sale and installation of tires and custom wheels.
Town Fair Tire is exclusively represented by Northeast Retail Leasing & Management Company, LLC.
