Questions and Answers

A franchise agreement gives you the right to act legally using a company's brand name and established business model.
As a franchise, you can work independently and also have the support and recognition of a franchise brand. The franchise business helps with an international commercial platform.

Usually, it takes around one month to complete the approval process and complete the legal documentation to begin operations. Below is a detailed overview of the process:

  1. Fill out our Franchise Inquiry Form.
  2. Once received, your completed application will be reviewed by our Franchise team.
  3. If you have an existing car rental company, we will most likely meet with you to discuss details.
  4. A term letter will be issued outlining the details of your franchise agreement.
  5. You will receive a franchise disclosure document that provides more detailed information about our franchise opportunity.
  6. A license agreement that needs to be signed will be sent to you. Upon receipt, you will be responsible for paying your initial franchise fee.
You will be given on-line training in the use of our reservation system and have full access to our library of video tutorials. We also have a help desk to support you.
The contract is long-term with the option of extension (subject to development targets).
Yes, a defined area is defined in the contract and is exclusive to the successful franchise.
The initial investment depends on the size of the market, fleet requirements and the cost of doing business in your area and most of all if you are already an established car rental company.
It varies based on a number of factors, such as the territory you obtain the franchise for, the potential fleet size, potential for growth, tourism industry size and the economic conditions of the market. Our franchise management team will be able to answer that.

The main obligations of the agreement are:

  1. A yearly target must be met
  2. Quality minimum criteria
  3. Minimum fleet and key positions
  4. Monthly fee declarations
  5. Signage and uniform standards
There are no specific vehicle make or model requirements, except that all vehicles must not be older than 3 years with maximum 60000km. We have a Service Level Agreement detailing minimum criterial for cars, shuttle service, and many other quality standards.
