Following its first major conference in Athens, Carwiz Greece announced expansion to eight new sub-franchise locations. This includes four islands: Thassos, Kos, Karpathos, and Samos, as well as six Greek cities: Patras, Rethymno, Alexandroupoli, Kavala, Kalamata, and Hersonissos.

"We are proud to have successfully launched over 30 locations in the most visited Greek cities and islands in just over two years," said Antonios Gelasakis, CEO of Carwiz Greece in the statement. "I can say with confidence that Carwiz Greece's vision is to continue expanding to other locations in Greece, and our main mission since the beginning of this partnership is to provide our clients with the best travel experience possible. Everything is ready for the first clients and the new season in our new locations, thanks to good partnerships and Carwiz International's mentorship."

"It should be noted that all of this occurred during a period of uncertainty about the pandemic, which adds weight," added Petra Furmeg, Carwiz International's regional franchise manager. "In that situation, the market quickly opened up to new and more modern solutions, and together we successfully established stability and efficiency, adapted the service to the new conditions, and satisfied all of the needs and wishes of clients, which I am extremely proud of."
