Dollar Rent A Car opens new Branch in Abu Dhabi

Travel News Asia 22 September 2005

With over AED 40 billion being invested in infrastructure developments across the city, including a state-of-the-art airport and 25,000 new hotel rooms, Abu Dhabi, the commercial capital of the Middle East, is all set to become a world-class tourist destination.

To meet the increasing demand for short-term vehicles, Dollar Rent A Car has opened a branch office in the capital on Defense Road, offering transportation solutions to meet the varied needs of residents, tourists and visiting businesspeople.

The rental fleet available at the new office will consist of premium brand vehicles from Japanese, American and European manufacturers.

“This new opening in Abu Dhabi’s commercial district is a key step in Dollar Rent A Car’s strategic expansion plan for the Emirates. With this new office, we now offer the largest, most comprehensive selection of rental vehicles in the capital,” said Sumit Chopra, general manager, Dollar Rent A Car. 

“All operational matters will be handled by the branch manager at the new outlet while key functions will be overseen by the well-established head office in Dubai, sharing expertise across the two cities,” he added.

Ahmed Sultan has been appointed branch manager at the new outlet and will be in charge of daily operations. Previously, Sultan was sales and marketing manager at Thrifty Car Rental in Kuwait where he was responsible for strengthening ties with customers and expanding Thrifty’s presence.

Fully-operational Dollar Rent A Car outlets can already be found throughout Dubai on the Sheikh Zayed Road, Bur Dubai, Deira, Karama, Hamriyah Free Zone, and the Dubai International Airport-Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. Dollar's fleet in the UAE is now close to 1200 vehicles.

In addition to expansion within the UAE, Dollar also intends to appoint new franchisees in Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon and Jordan in the coming months.
