Competition

Competitive Landscape for Avis Europe plc
Consumer spending and interest rates drive demand. The profitability of individual companies depends on the volume and mix of cars and services sold. Large companies can offer a wider selection of cars and have advantages in marketing, purchasing, and finance. Small companies can compete effectively by offering superior customer service or serving a local market. Annual revenue per worker averages $600,000 for new car dealerships and $700,000 for used. For vehicle sales, auto dealers compete with private market sellers, who are increasingly using the Internet to bypass traditional retail channels. Companies compete with various retail outlets, such as oil change centers, tire stores, and independent service shops and chains, for service revenue. To read the full description, subscribe now.
