Foundation and history

The company's history begins in 1994 in Georgia, when a young team of founders from the Concord Group business association decided to create a new car rental company. According to the company itself, at that time there were no companies operating in that field in the country nor professional managers with experience in the sector, so they had to start from scratch. The management team created a completely new system in the local market and became an innovator of many ideas. The resulting company was Concord Motors, which started with five vehicles.
