NewsMaddenCo Announces Expansion of Services Into Canada 10/30/2008 MaddenCo is pleased to announce that it has entered the Canadian market with its Internet-based ASP Tire Dealer System. Frisby Tire Co. of Ottawa, Ontario and Denray Tire Ltd. of Winnepeg, Manitoba have signed with MaddenCo to use the ASP Tire Dealer System. “At this time, with the recent passing of MaddenCo’s founder, Greg Madden, I think it is important that we make this statement about our expansion into Canada. We are fortunate to have been chosen by the folks at Frisby Tire and Denray Tire to begin this endeavor. We look forward to providing Frisby Tire, Denray Tire and other Canadian tire dealers with the same services that we have been providing domestically for over 30 years. This expansion, coupled with our recent agreement to provide national account processing services to the Double Coin National Account Fleet Program, makes us feel good about where we are headed as a company and the array of services that we will continue to provide to the tire industry. We look forward to a successful SEMA Show next week”, says Jay Adams, Vice President and General Counsel for the company. MaddenCo has been providing the managed ASP, software-as-a-service concept to its customers since 2000 and has approximately 650 tire locations using this service. MaddenCo provides total software solutions for the independent tire dealer, retreader, commercial tire dealer and truck stop industries. For more information on MaddenCo, visit www.maddenco.com. Double Coin to use MaddenCo software for national account delivery receipt processing 10/21/2008 MaddenCo is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with China Manufacturers Alliance LLC (CMA) to provide national account delivery receipt processing for CMA’s Double Coin National Account Fleet Program. By using the MaddenCo Tire Dealer System, CMA will be able to electronically process Double Coin delivery receipts that are sent to it by its dealers. “We are excited to be working with CMA in automating its Double Coin delivery receipt processing. We look forward to bringing our knowledge of the dealer side of delivery receipt processing to the rubber vendor side of the equation. CMA will now be able to track credits due to its dealers for national account work, and if a dealer is using MaddenCo’s system, CMA can actually send an automated credit back to the dealer the next day,” says Jay Adams, Sales Manager of MaddenCo. As part of this process, Double Coin dealers using the MaddenCo Tire Dealer System will send delivery receipts to Double Coin through traditional Point-of-Sale processing, just as if the dealer was performing any other national account delivery receipt in the Tire Dealer System. Double Coin dealers not on the MaddenCo Tire Dealer System will enter delivery receipts through a MaddenCo-supported website which will interface with CMA’s internal MaddenCo system. The website is scheduled for implementation in 2009.
