Avis Rent a Car has announced the acquisition of the Avis Coach Charter operation as a corporate business, effective from October 2011. The coach charter company started as a licensee operation in 2008.
Avis Southern Africa ce, Keith Rankin, says: “Avis Rent a Car now owns 75% of the company, with former licensee, Nobbie Marais, owning the remaining 25%.”
Marais, who has 28 years’ experience in the business, will remain on board as general manager of Avis Coach Charter.
Rankin says with the Coach Charter operation being a strategic part of Avis’s total transport solution, the car-rental company decided to purchase a shareholding in the organisation with a view to facilitating growth and taking service delivery to a new level.
