These rental offices will feature the Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental, and Alamo Rent A Car brands, as well as the Nippon Rent-A-Car brand, and will offer discounted rental rates.
As the partnership progresses over the next few years, both companies will work together to develop additional customer offerings and services.
