Is Michelin a Tire or a Restaurant?
1 Answers
Both. The Michelin Group is a global leader in tire technology, established over a century ago in Clermont-Ferrand, France. In addition to tires, the Michelin Group also produces rims, steel wires, mobility assistance systems (such as the PAX system), travel services, maps, and travel guides, with its map and guide publishing arm being a leader in the field. Here is additional information: Michelin-starred restaurants are those listed in the "Michelin Red Guide." In 1900, the founders of Michelin Tires published a guidebook called the "Michelin Guide" to help travelers choose restaurants during their journeys. The guide includes travel itinerary planning, attraction recommendations, and road navigation. The "Michelin Red Guide" (also known as the "Michelin Red Book") awards star ratings to restaurants annually.
