A new Enterprise Rent-A-Car headquarters in Blanchardstown, Dublin was announced today as part of the company’s plans for growth and expansion throughout Ireland.

Enterprise Rent-A-Car is part of Enterprise Holdings, the world’s largest vehicle rental company, which also includes the National Car Rental and Alamo Rent A Car brands.

The company is expanding the business in Ireland and plans to recruit 75 new employees in the coming year.

Operating in Ireland since 1997, Enterprise Rent-A-Car employs more than 200 staff in its 25 branches. As part of its business expansion, the company plans to open and relocate a number of its branches to larger premises within the next six months to include the Long Mile Road and Russell Street in Dublin’s city centre.

George O’Connor, managing director of Enterprise Rent-A-Car Ireland, said: “When we started Enterprise Rent-A-Car in Ireland we had just two employees and 10 cars in the fleet. I’m delighted, now, almost twenty years later that we are continuing our expansion with year-on-year growth. We are in the process of relocating a number of our branches across the country to bigger premises and we are looking to take on up to 75 employees within the next fiscal year.”

The new head office in Dublin adds to Enterprise’s network of more than 400 locations throughout Ireland and the UK.
