GOLDCAR Car Hire

Goldcar is one of the companies that you can choose by renting a car or a van with gocarrental.co.za. It is one of the leading groups in Europe, with a fleet of approximately 50,000 vehicles. The 80% of this fleet is renewed annually. In this way it is possible to offer the user a quality service, made even more valid thanks to the work of about 1000 employees.

To talk about the history of the Goldcar car rental company, you have to go back to 1985. In fact, in that year, the brothers Juan and Pedro Alcaraz started a car rental business in San Juan de Alicante. The headquarters were located in a strategic position, ie along the highway to Valencia.

The fleet of vehicles with which the Alcaraz brothers started the business was characterized by four Ford Fiesta and one Ford Escort.

Goldcar developments

To find another important year for the Goldcar car rental company, consider 1987. Two years after the founding of the business, the Alcaraz brothers have opened another car rental in Torrevieja, also in the Alicante area.

The following year the company was officially registered and in 1989 the third car rental was opened, also in Spanish territory. In the following years the volume of business has grown a lot. Another decisive milestone for Goldencar's business was undoubtedly 2000, when the car rental company opened an office at Malaga airport.

The company has grown gradually, expanding in the following years in the remaining areas of the Iberian territory. International expansion continued to be the protagonist in subsequent periods, leading to the opening of some branches of Goldcar in several international cities, among which it is possible to remember Cancun.
