Enterprise Holdings has appointed Amigos S.R.L. as its Alamo Rent A Car franchise partner in Paraguay. This appointment continues the expansion of the Alamo brand in Latin America and the Caribbean —which now includes 24 countries and territories, according to the company.
“By opening locations in Paraguay’s largest city, Asunción, we’re connecting our existing Alamo customers throughout the region to a new travel destination, as well as introducing local customers to the value and affordability of the Alamo brand,” said Peter Smith, vice president of global franchising at Enterprise Holdings, owner and operator of the Alamo, National and Enterprise brands. “We’re also excited to offer a new Latin American travel option to our tour and travel agent partners around the world.”
Alamo will open a location at Paraguay’s Silvio Pettirossi International Airport as well as downtown Asunción.
