LONDON - October 24, 2008: European Car & Van Rental Business Expo 2009 is the first ever dedicated international event for the car, van and light truck rental business sector. The Expo, which is launched by UKIP Media & Events Ltd, one of the recognized experts in B2B automotive and transportation exhibitions, is to be held in Hannover, Germany on 29, 30 September & 1 October 2009. The three day event will showcase all the key technologies, services and strategies that are vital for the daily operations of rental companies.

Matthew Gunn, the Marketing Director for the show, says: "The highly competitive European rental sector is facing significant challenges. Now, more than ever before, companies need to compete effectively and they urgently need to instigate the deployment of leading-edge technologies, systems and business models in order to improve efficiencies, reduce operating costs, and assure long term growth and profitability."

European Car & Van Rental Business Expo will provide an excellent business-to-business platform and important meeting point for key decision makers and suppliers in the rental sector.

"It's surprising that an industry like this does not already have a dedicated show", continues Gunn. "The rental sector has its own set of complexities, technologies and industry issues that simply aren't catered for by established Fleet shows. This will be an outstanding event, and one that we know the rental sector has been crying out for."

The exhibition will host industry-leading suppliers, providing an unrivalled collection of latest-generation technical, financial and managerial products. The event will also be supported by a three-day high-level conference, dealing with global, regional, managerial, operational and technical issues delivered by expert speakers drawn from the world's leading car, van and light truck rental and leasing companies.
