The Smart Business Dealmakers of the Year Awards recognise individuals who are shaping the landscape of business and innovation in Pittsburgh. This year, Liberty Tire CEO Thomas Womble was recognised by The Pittsburgh Dealmakers Hall of Fame among a class of dealmakers that have made an often-groundbreaking impact on their organisations, industries and the region over the course of decades in business
The winners’ accomplishments were celebrated at the Pittsburgh Smart Business Dealmakers Conference on 19 February, highlighting the strength and diversity of the local business community.
Under Womble’s leadership, Liberty Tire has expanded into a nationwide platform, supported by an extensive network of processing facilities and a workforce of more than 3,500 employees.
A key milestone in the company’s growth was its $1.5 billion acquisition by I Squared Capital, underlining Liberty’s role in advancing circular economy infrastructure. With ongoing strategic acquisitions and operational expansion, the business is well-positioned for continued growth while delivering environmentally responsible solutions to distributors and tyre manufacturers.
