A heated market, constantly expanding and with its own specificities, which involve terms, deadlines, types of contract, regulations, trends, among others. This is the car rental sector in Brazil.
And have you ever imagined having access to everything that involves the world of car rental in one place? This is the proposal of Definitive Guide to Rental Companies, designed and developed by Julian Gritsch, a businessman with almost three decades of experience in the sector.
According to him, Golfleet, which is one of the partner companies, is part of the conception of this idea:
“I was invited to participate in the Parar Global Conference in 2023 and talk about the rental market. I was part of a debate panel about car rental companies. My participation made me stop and reflect on how much I understood about this segment”, recalls Gritsch.
It was then that he decided to put into practice all the knowledge he had accumulated over these three decades, and the idea of creating the e-book came up. Among the topics covered are:
- History and evolution of rental companies
- Current trends
- Market structure
- Challenges and opportunities
- regulations
- Customer Service
- Commercial strategies
- Legal aspects and compliance
The creator of the material points out that the e-book will undergo revisions, when necessary, in order to always remain current.
Another topic that will be covered in the Guide is fleet management. “The idea is that the fleet manager has access to understand how a rental company, this very important supplier, works. There is a global trend towards renting a car and the manager will have a broader vision”, he explains.

The four pillars of leasing, according to Gritsch, are purchase, maintenance, rental and sale of the vehicle. “I separate the e-book according to these 4 major pillars”, he says, adding that the digital material will have a physical version, as well as translations into English and Spanish.
Without a doubt, the Guide will further strengthen the Brazilian rental market. “My expectation now is to do a good job of promoting it to those who will consume the e-book”, points out the creator of the material, which has the Brazilian Association of Car Rental Companies (ABLA) as an institutional sponsor.
“Through UNIABLA, a university in the ABLA rental sector, I will give lectures about the e-book, having the opportunity to talk about the material in various places”, he concludes.
The launch of the Definitive Guide to Rental Companies will take place on March 01, 2024, and can be purchased via the website: www.guiadaslocadoras.com.br
