Nextcar Rentals Franchise. List to all major Online Travel Agencies
Prime location at the hard corner of 7th Ave and Mendenhall St, with easy access to I-90. Location is one block off Main St. Only 15 minutes from Bozeman airport. The only rental car company within walking distance of downtown and Montana State University. Lots of walk in traffic due to downtown proximity, including Bozeman residents and hotel guests. All other rental car companies are outside of Bozeman proper.
Profitability comes from the unique rental car franchise - manufacturer relationship. As a Nextcar franchisee, you are able to purchase brand new vehicles at factory price (far cheaper than "invoice"), rent the vehicle at a profit, then sell the vehicle 6+ months later at a profit. Fleet sale timing is at the discretion of the franchisee. The business includes a used vehicle dealer license, required to either sell vehicles retail to the public or wholesale at a dealer's auction.
Nextcar Franchise grants exclusive rights of Nextcar brand to all of Gallatin County, including Bozeman Airport.
Includes off-site car rental operator agreement at Bozeman airport with contact-free rental car business model. Dedicated parking stalls at Bozeman airport. Advertisement near baggage claim at airport. Also able to operate on-demand or scheduled shuttle service. Airport operations run in tandem with downtown operations, for example, customer may choose to pick up vehicle downtown and return at airport.
