The announcement was made during the Avis Budget Group International Conference, held in Istanbul, which brought together licensees from over 150 countries. This marks the first time an African Avis licensee and an Egyptian car rental company has received such global recognition. The win also reflects the strength of Avis Egypt as part of Avis Budget Egypt, the official licensee of Avis, Budget & Payless in Egypt and the mobility arm of Ezz Elarab Group, a pioneering automotive enterprise with 50 years of legacy in the Egyptian market.
