LOS ANGELES, March 14 /PRNewswire/ -- As part of a company-wide expansion strategy, Fox Rent A Car has opened a corporate location in the Seattle Airport and is planning to open an additional corporate location in Salt Lake City on April 1st 2008.
In August 2007, Fox opened the corporate location in Seattle, eventually looking to move into the consolidated car rental facility that is currently being planned. Opening in Seattle offers Fox the availability to target the value oriented consumer and local businesses. Fox is pleased to see explosive rental car growth in the Seattle market in the first 60 days of opening.
"In 2007 we asked our customers what new markets they would like to see us in," said Joe Knight, Vice President of Business Development. "Our customers are very loyal and gave us some great suggestions. Helped by their feedback, we decided to open the Seattle and Salt Lake Airports, and we are in the advanced planning stages to open additional locations throughout 2008. The airports that we have selected, like Seattle and Salt Lake, offers us options to participate 'on-airport' as the opportunities develop."
Seattle has been a great new market for us," said Mike Jaberi, a founder and owner of Fox Rent A Car. "As we continue to develop and refine our web-based reservation system, our volume of business continues to grow. We are confident that we can enter new airport markets and succeed."
