On June 2, Enterprise Holdings announced new franchise locations in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Morocco, and the Bahamas. Each of the three new markets will feature car rental options from the Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental, and Alamo Rent A Car brands.

In the U.S. Virgin Islands, the company plans to open locations and provide service on the three main islands of St. Thomas, St. Croix, and St. John, beginning with the buildout of a location at the Cyril E. King Airport in St. Thomas, the largest international airport in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

In Morocco, plans include downtown locations in both Marrakech and Casablanca along with a presence at major airports.

“Over the past 10 years, we’ve executed an aggressive global growth plan designed to ensure our customers have greater access to the brands they know and love, no matter where they travel,” said Peter Smith, vice president of global franchising at Enterprise Holdings. “Franchisees appreciate the Enterprise standard of excellence and have transformed our business by helping us grow a significant international footprint. Around the corner, or around the world, Enterprise has you covered.”

Enterprise Holdings has a presence in more than 90 countries and territories.
