Routes customers will be able to access Europcar’s car rental services directly from Routes’ website (www.routes.ca) or directly at Europcar stations and will be able to book all-inclusive packages outside of Canada throughout the Europcar Worldwide Network.

Fabrizio Ruggiero, Deputy CEO, Europcar Mobility Group, commented: “We are proud to partner with Routes, which has an amazing entrepreneurial story in the North American car rental industry. We share with them a common vision of the quality of service that our customers deserve. We were seeking for a key partner in Canada, which has become a prime travel destination, in order to adequately complete our worldwide network of alliances and partners. Now, we are eager to start working with them, as we’re actively preparing our companies for the future.
Partnering with a strong global brand like Europcar will provide mutual benefit for both companies that will ensure the continued success and growth of both organizations says Mr. Hardeep Nagra, President of Routes Car Rental.
