Viarent expansion in Eastern and Western Hungary

Szombathely and Debrecen

Viarent Ltd. has reached an important milestone in its almost three decades of uninterrupted growth. From January 2021, the commercial vehicle rental company of the Delta-Truck group will make its products and services directly available to customers in several rural towns. Viarent Ltd. aims to expand its franchise network to more and more regions of the country by involving more and more contract partners.

As of the second half of January, customers in Budapest and Szigetszentmiklós will be able to directly access Viarent Kft.'s products and services in Debrecen, Győr and Szombathely, as well as in Budapest and Szigetszentmiklós. They can immediately access the services for one-day or shorter or longer distance deliveries of up to 3.5 tonnes, for example for private individuals moving furniture or vehicles, or for vehicle operators bridging the time needed for a service, and now also in these locations. On the basis of individual needs, Viarent Ltd. is also available for renting other types of commercial vehicles and longer rental schemes, even for several years, through its rural partners contracted with its franchise network.

Everything is the same, only the location is different

"Our goal is to expand the geographical area of short-term rental of small commercial vehicles in Hungary," said Zsombor Páll, head of the small commercial vehicle business of Viarent Kft. "For this purpose, we are entering into franchise agreements with partners who have been in the commercial vehicle business for a long time and who have their own customer base and are well-known in the region. And the franchise system is important to ensure that our customers experience exactly the same branding, product and service offering and service levels at all our partners as at our own sites. In this way, we can guarantee consistent quality everywhere, every time. This is how we found Truck-repair Kft. and Cargo-Profil Kft., which are jointly owned by the two companies and will represent Viarent Kft. in Debrecen, Szombathely and Győr from January. Of course, this is only the beginning, in the near future we would like to be in direct reach of our customers in more and more regions of the country by involving further partners", Zsombor Páll explained.

A multiply fruitful relationship

"We represent the Ford Trucks brand in Debrecen, Győr and Szombathely as a contractual partner of Delta-Truck Kft., so we know from experience that we can now join a large Hungarian company with a strong and stable background, but at the same time ensuring dynamic and efficient cooperation in the vehicle rental business" - said Ákos Takács, Managing Director of Truck-repair Kft. and Cargo-Profil Kft. "We are convinced that we have laid the foundations for a mutually beneficial partnership with Viarent Kft. It is a positive opportunity for us to add commercial vehicle rental to our profile with such high quality support and a strong background. At the same time, we will be able to enter into the brand-independent used vehicle sales business, and the brand-independent servicing of Viarent Kft. vehicles will be added to our portfolio in these regions, strengthening the core business of our companies," added Ákos Takács.
