Franchise Opportunities with Green Motion Vehicle
Rental
 | The Green Motion Franchise
system has been designed and developed to give budding
entrepreneurs and business professionals the opportunity and
freedom to own and operate their own successful vehicle rental
business. The UK vehicle rental industry has experienced
continued growth during the last decade, however is dominated by
multi-national vehicle rental brands such as Avis, Budget, Hertz
and Enterprise differentiating themselves by price and little
else. |
In 2005, reacting on the global need to take
genuine and positive action to play a part in reducing the effects
of climate change, Green Motion's founder and Managing
Director, Richard Lowden, set about creating what is now
the world’s first fully environmentally friendly vehicle
rental company.
It is not necessary for a Green Motion franchisee
to have experience of the vehicle rental market – what's
important is your and your team’s attitude and determination
to succeed. Selecting the right individuals as franchise partners
is a vital element of our long-term success.
