DiscoverCars.com in the FT 1000: Europe's Fastest Growing Companies 2020
The company has experienced record growth.
DiscoverCars.com was incredibly honored to be listed on the prestigious list of the fastest-growing companies in Europe compiled by the Financial Times. It was the 64th fastest-growing company overall, the 3rd fastest-growing travel company, and the fastest growing car rental company.
The list was compiled using revenue data submitted by each company. It lists the ones that saw the highest compound revenue growth rate between 2015 and 2018.
DiscoverCars.com began as Discover Car Hire in 2013. Originally serving hot vacation spots in Europe, it has come to serve locations throughout the world — over 10,000 of them — which has powered its financial growth.
This is in no small due to the extremely hard work of the company's more than 75 employees who hail from more than 15 countries. Each one has invested their time and energy improving the car rental booking experience that millions of renters have had.
The company has continued to invest in its future growth through the coronavirus pandemic. It has both invested in improving the booking experience for customers and added new partners in locations throughout the world to give its customers the options that best fit them.
DiscoverCars.com was named the Leading Car Rental Booking Website in the 2020 World Travel Awards and was a Silver Winner in the Online Travel Services Marketing-Website category of the Magellan Awards by Travel Weekly.
