Brunel is a leading B2B corporate ground transportation solutions provider in the UK. The sale of Brunel is part of Europcar’s Connect strategy to position the Group as a major player of flexible, sustainable, digital and connected mobility in the years to come and allows the continued focus and further development on core business activities including vehicle rental and car sharing.
The acquisition of Brunel will help continue Green Tomato’s growth as the largest zero-emission passenger fleet in Europe and makes it well placed to thrive once Covid-19 restrictions are lifted.
"We selected BDO because of their M&A credentials in the sector and the bespoke solution proposed to us to address the issue we had. The team on the ground, who worked on the deal day-to-day displayed strong personal commitment, resilience to changing situations and setbacks, and perhaps most importantly of all, quickly formed excellent and effective working relationships with both internal colleagues and other external advisers."
Alex Firth, Head of M&A, Europcar Mobility Group
