Sixt announce the opening of a new branch to service customers traveling to Detroit Metro Airport.  This new branch further strengthens the Sixt US network, along with recently opened branches servicing airports in Greenville South Carolina, Minneapolis – St. Paul, San Diego, San Francisco, and Santa Rosa California.

“Our global corporate accounts began requesting a Sixt branch to service Detroit Metro soon after we started opening US branches in 2011, and servicing the automotive industry is a priority for us.  We will offer corporate customers and other travelers’ access to our large selection of premium vehicles, from German and American brands like BMW, Cadillac and Mercedes-Benz.” said Craig Olson, Executive Vice President of North America Franchise Development for Sixt.
