Let me present the company where I did my work placement
I did my work placement at one of Bridgestone dealers. I went to the parent company to meet the CEO and have my agreement signed.
Bridgstone Corporation is the world's largest manufacturer of tyres and other rubber products. The headquarters are based in Tokyo. the company was founded in 1931 and the founder was the Japanese businessman Shojiro Ishibashi. In Japanese Ishi means stone and bashi means bridge. So the name Bridgestone comes from a translation ishibashi, meaning "stone bridge" in Japanese.
Bridgestone Corporation and its subsidiaries employ over 140,000 people around the world and 20,000 people in EMIA.
They operate 178 plants in 25 countries and sell tyres in more than 150 countries.
I mainly work with my placement supervisor and another trainee and I really enjoyed this internship.
