Tampa is one of the top travel destinations in the U.S., and Sixt's Tampa location is ready to service both business and leisure travelers," commented Craig Olson, Vice President of North America Franchise Development for Sixt Franchise USA, LLC. "Interest in joining the Sixt franchise system has been very strong, and we have already signed Franchise Agreements for more major U.S. airport markets, including the Las Vegas market. There are many great airport and local markets still available. We have also completed the necessary steps to begin franchising in Canada. Independent car rental operators and entrepreneurs are excited to get in on the ground floor of our U.S. & Canadian expansion. Additional franchise locations will be opening throughout the year, and Sixt will continue to add new franchisees to facilitate its growth in U.S. & Canadian markets."
