Sixt has opened its first corporate branch in Liverpool, aiming to increase its presence in the UK.

The new Sixt location, which will create 11 jobs and see £100,000 invested in property, offers car hire in Liverpool at the historic Albert Docks, seven days a week.

It provides a full range of vehicles to suit both personal and business needs for both van and car rental in Liverpool.

Customer’s looking to hire a car in Liverpool will be able to take advantage of the branch’s fleet, which includes economy and family cars, convertibles and premium brands such as Mercedes and BMW, alongside people carriers and van rental.

The opening is Sixt’s fourth location in the north-west region, with three already operating in Manchester and more planned in 2013.

It also represents yet another addition to the company’s 4,000 branches across more than 105 countries, and will maintain the Sixt family’s commitment to provide quality vehicles at affordable prices.

Alongside the introduction of cheap car hire in Liverpool, Sixt provides a range of services including Flexi-rent, which offers SMEs the opportunity to lease premium rental vehicles without long lead times.

Paul McLoughlin, managing director of Sixt UK, said: “We are delighted to introduce our own brand of car hire in Liverpool, one of the economic hubs of the UK, and a pivotal part of our continued plans to grow in the north-west.

“The opening underlines our commitment to provide flexible and convenient car and van rental to customers in Liverpool.”
