Eagle Pass, Texas Mayor Ramsey English Cantu announced that Discount Tire is opening a new retail tire store in Eagle Pass on Bibb Avenue, adjacent to the Blue Wave Express Car Wash, in the immediate future.

Mayor Cantu noted that construction of the new Discount Tire store is already underway and should be completed in the near future.

Mayor Cantu stated that there are several other national name brand businesses, including restaurants, looking into investing in Eagle Pass.  Cantu was unable to name the businesses at the moment due to the need to provide privacy to these businesses while they are conducting their market and site research.

The addition of new retail businesses such as Discount Tire will create new jobs, career opportunities, and sales taxes in the community.  Eagle Passans stand to benefit from new businesses opening in the community as retail prices for certain goods will become more competitive in the local market, offering better prices for local residents.

Mayor Cantu noted that he anticipates more businesses announcing their plans to open new retail businesses in Eagle Pass before the end of the 2017 year.
