This prestigious organisation was founded by owner Warren Avis at Willow Run Airport in Detroit USA with an $85 000 investment. AVIS was one of the first Car rental operations located near an airport. Soon after, locations were opened up at MIAMI airport. Not too long after AVIS was found, Owner and Founder of AVIS sold his company to business man and Financier Richard S. Robie for 8 Million Dollars, this could mean 1 of two things, owner and founder felt like AVIS won’t make it or business was doing so good that someone, Richard, felt like business was doing so good that he had to have a piece of it.


Over the years AVIS went through a lot of transformations and new ownerships, but the car rental company stayed true to its roots, and It finally paid off in 2010 when AVIS was named the “Leading car rental company in customer loyalty” by the Brand Keys Customer Loyalty Engagement index for the 11th consecutive year. AVIS has a rich history and is going from strength to strength.
