Site Report:
Alamo Rent A Car today is one of the nation's largest rental car companies. They
service the most popular domestic and international travel destinations by
providing quality vehicles and service to leisure, business, and local
customers.
Alamo Rent A Car currently operates in over 1000 locations throughout the
United States, Canada, Europe, Latin America, the Caribbean, Asian-Pacific,
Africa and Australia.
The company operates over 150,000 quality vehicles that serve 15 million
travelers annually.
But they weren't always this big, obviously. Alamo started with a
local market and a good marketing plan. Alamo Rent a Car started in 1974.
The company concentrated on the Florida market. All good companies start with a
marketing concept designed to differentiate themselves from their competitors,
and Alamo rental car was no exception. They started the idea of unlimited
free mileage. Alamo quickly carved out a market of leisure travelers that used
their service. To facilitate their outreach to leisure travelers, Alamo
constructed state-of-the art rental plazas geared to serve hundreds of customers
per hour in a modern, ultra-spacious environment. The first rental plaza opened
in Tampa, Fla., in 1982, with more following in other major leisure destinations
including Orlando, Fla.
In keeping with their marketing roots, Alamo became the first car rental
company with real-time booking capabilities on the Internet in 1995. Customers
could visit Alamo.com to find locations, view rates and select their vehicle.
Alamo's continued commitment to the leisure travel market has fostered
longstanding partnerships with the airline industry (those that serve tourist
destinations, especially), travel destinations (Convention and Visitor's
Bureaus), travel agents and tour operators around the world. In 2002, Alamo
announced a partnership with Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort,
making Alamo the official rental car company of the most frequented tourist
attractions in North America.
