A tire and auto shop is scheduled to be completed this December in the city of Mercedes. 

Officials announced a Southern Tire Mart will be opening a location in the city, which they project will generate taxable sales of about $950,000. 

The city stated in the release that the state-of-the-art facility is expected to have a significant positive impact on the local economy, noting that the substantial investment exceeded $4.4 million. 

The Southern Tire Mart’s facility spans 14,875 square feet, which officials say will provide an expansive and well-equipped space for customers to explore a wide selection of high quality tires and accessories. 

Its completion is scheduled for December of this year, with 20 staff professionals with expertise in tires.
