Hertz South Africa
South Africa’s first car rental company founded in 1919 under the name Delville Wood Motors Car Hire, Hertz car hire, under the name Africa Car Rental and owned by Bob Murry, pioneered the first Cape to Cairo chauffeur driven tours in the 1930s. Murry was granted the Hertz franchise for South Africa in the late 1950s. It was not until 1967 that Hertz’s first car rental rival emerged. Hertz left South Africa in 1986, returning to the New South Africa in 1997.
Hertz is one of South Africa’s largest car rental companies, with significant presence throughout the country and at major airports. Car hire through Hertz offers customers an established brand with a fleet of compact, full size, SUV, van and luxury vehicles for hire.
Hertz believes in investing in its people and establishing differentiation through innovative marketing. The advertising campaign ‘You’ll love Hertz’ embraces Hertz’s passion and desire to actively renovate the car hire market, and reinforces the philosophy of inviting customers into a welcoming and warm atmosphere with efficient service from motivated staff.
Hertz’s brings you “the consistency of an international brand delivered with a true South Africa flavour; the best combination of passion and efficiency. Love our service, love our people, love Hertz!”
