Jeety’s proposal seeks to reverse that narrative through his company, Jeety Rubber LLC. The businessman is spearheading a transformative initiative aimed at establishing Liberia’s first-ever tire manufacturing industry. By strengthening local demand for raw rubber, the initiative is expected to improve farm-gate prices and provide more stable income for rural producers. If realized, the production of Liberia’s first locally made tires would serve as a powerful symbol of national pride and self-sufficiency. As the countdown to 2028 begins, the progress of Jeety Rubber LLC will be closely watched.
