Payless Car Rental Opens New Franchise Location in Florida
The Payless Car Rental facility now located on the Port Canaveral property will cater to cruise line passengers.
Florida-based Payless Car Rental System Inc. and Bob Dance Automotive announced on Dec. 19 the opening of the partnership's second Payless Car Rental franchise operation. The new location will be located in Port Canaveral to assist cruise line passengers.
The opening is part of Payless’ local market car rental expansion throughout the U.S.
The company is looking to work with companies like Bob Dance Automotive who want to bring their car rental activities in-house.
“Cruise ship passengers arriving at Port Canaveral are looking for value and convenience when they rent a car. We are there to provide them with both,” said Scott Dance, franchise owner and operating principal. “We are also there for the cargo line companies, shippers, and other local business on the Space Coast.”
