This leading Australia and New Zealand rental car company is making a move to help solidify its market presence in New South Wales. It will concurrently open three new branches in the Hunter Valley.

The new franchises are due to open on August 1. They are at Maitland, Muswellbrook and Singleton. They will join the Europcar branches in Newcastle and Newcastle airport to try to get a substantial share of the rental car market in the area.

Sarah Williams owns one of the franchises. She is experience managing car rental outlets with her family. They have operated successfully for more than ten years and are excited and optimistic about the Hunter Valley expansion.

The new branches are an important part of Europcar’s strategy. They will be servicing a popular Australian drive destination in the famous wine country as well as commercial car rental needs in the area.

“Our established branches at Newcastle and Newcastle Airport operate in excess of 100 vehicles which is characterised by an extensive range of cars, trucks, vans, utes, buses and 4WD’s,’’ Ms Williams said “With Europcar expanding operations into the Hunter with locations opening in Maitland, Singleton and Muswellbrook, this will see the fleet expand to over 400 vehicles.
