Unlike our competitors, we have always operated through an extensive network of local, neighbourhood offices, each powered by the energy of a small, highly entrepreneurial team. The concept grew from humble beginnings: the basement of a St. Louis, MO., car dealership with a small team of bright, ambitious colleagues fielding phone calls, calculating rates and washing cars. Our first customers were the ones who really shaped the business model that we use today. They told us they wanted to rent cars where they live and work. As we built our company, one neighbourhood at a time over the years, we also built strong relationships with the people who call those communities home, and it is because of those relationships that we have achieved unprecedented growth. Through our neighbourhood network, Enterprise: Has more than 35,000 vehicles and 400 locations, including 23 offices serving airports, across Canada Purchases millions of dollars worth of vehicles through local dealerships Handles tens of millions of transactions every year Operates more than 7,000 offices in Canada, the U.S., the U.K., Ireland and Germany
