Abstract:

The case discusses the strategies adopted by the car rental company, Avis Rent A Car System, to gain market share in the US and European car rental industries. It provides detailed background information about the company, tracing the continual changes in ownership over the decades.

The case examines the marketing strategies undertaken by Avis, in particular its transformation of its runner up status into a marketing virtue, to become the market leader in Europe and attract an extremely loyal client base in the US. The case also takes a look at the various humanitarian programs launched by Avis over the years to support its marketing initiatives.
