Enterprise Holdings Honors Auto Auction Partners for Exceptional Performance

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Enterprise Holdings, the world's largest car rental company, which owns the Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental and Alamo Rent A Car brands, will honor 14 automotive auction partners from across the country with its 2017 Auction Achievement Awards. This annual program recognizes auto auction partners for exceptional services that support Enterprise Holdings' efforts to remarket late-model, low-mileage, well-maintained rental and fleet vehicles to potential buyers.

Enterprise Holdings global network operates in more than 90 countries and territories, and has more than 6,400 neighborhood and airport locations in the U.S. alone. The company's unique ability to meet consumers' and businesses' increasing demands for flexible, affordable and sustainable mobility options in thousands of communities of all sizes makes Enterprise Holdings a significant part of the automotive value chain in today's society. Its company operations result in over one million used vehicles that become available for sale every year. Enterprise maintains close partnerships with local auto auctions that help remarket many of those vehicles to as many buyers as possible.

"The Auction Achievement Award winners play an important role in our efforts to showcase vehicles in cities and regions across the country," said Nate Lattimer, Enterprise Holdings' Vice President of Vehicle Remarketing. "We created this award as a way to say thanks for the accomplishments of these valuable business partners."

The Enterprise, National and Alamo brands offer dealership partners an extensive selection of late-model, regularly-serviced vehicles with a wide variety of makes, models and trim levels.

Regional Enterprise Holdings teams present the awards to the auction partners in their area, in two categories: whole-car auctions and damaged-vehicle auctions. Recipients are recognized for exceptional performance in the areas of communication, customer service, marketing and reconditioning, operational success, and strategic planning.

"Our Enterprise teams have terrific, long-term relationships with local auction operators so they are in the best position to nominate the best of the best for our Auction Achievement Awards," said Lattimer.
