SHIFT Car Rental, a leading rent a car brand in UAE celebrating its 10 years of achievement and success

Dubai, United Arab Emirates - August 1, 2018 /MarketersMedia/ —

We are in an era of New.Now.Next. Agreed.No contesting that.That being said, it's a time to look back- no taking stock but pure reminiscing, embracing the romance that only nostalgia can offer. It was the summer of 2008. And a summer for some hot wheels to hit the road.

It was the year that Shift got on the car rental bandwagon. No pied pipers or trumpets. No shenanigans. Just a small team with a vision backed by the undisputed legacy of a diversified conglomerate in the AWR Group.

Fledglings no doubt.But, with feelings that espoused ' we will make a dent in the universe '.The number was 50 then. We are talking about the fleet strength of Shift at that time. That number did a lot to hide the passion and the ambition that the visionary team possessed. That was to be ' the best car rental company not just in the UAE but in the region '.

At Shift the mission was very clear. It was(and will remain) all about ' compassionate capitalism '. It was walking the ' profitable audacity ' route. At the fulcrum of it all was the underlying philosophy of care. Care for our stakeholders both internal and external. Care for the planet. Esoteric as it may sound but, at Shift, it is all about the 3Ps- People. Purpose. Planet. Profit is a distilled by product.

" Over the past decade, since the rubber hit the road, we at Shift have been made more responsible and increasingly accountable. Awards, accolades, recognition like the Dubai Quality Awards or the Sh Khalifa Excellence Awards are the stars and stripes that don the mantle whilst ensuring we keep our feet firmly on terra firma. Our growing and highly satisfied customer base(over 2000 and counting) across both retail and leasing has been consistently endorsing why we have been constantly touted as the fastest growing car rental brand in the UAE. We believe that is true empowerment coming from the most desirous quarters: our customers", remarks Ashish Nanda, Director, Shift rent a car Dubai and a founding member and chief pilot of the Shift brand.

Shift was the first mover to roll out electric cars as a car rental company in the form of the Renault Zoe. Sustainability has to be a concern's concern and at Shift, they walk the torque.

Ten years on, our fleet has grown to more than 7500 vehicles. But the feet are the same. What has grown alongside is the vision, the compassion, the desire to excel, the commitment to deliver, the will to share and the unflinching promise to care. Trustomer First.

Analog or digital, we are happy that we still look forward to delivering smileage, day in and day out.
