Global expansion continues with 30th country organisation
LeasePlan has officially opened its 30th country organisation in Mexico capitalising on the opportunities of the upcoming local market for operational leasing and answering to the service demand of existing international clients.

Vahid Daemi, CEO of LeasePlan Corporation, is proud of the LeasePlan office in Mexico being opened: “We’ve been investigating the possibility to start an office in Mexico, next to the US and Brazil, for some time and saw that the time was right in 2008. Since 2007, operational leasing in Mexico has become more favourable from a tax perspective and we believe that mainly due to this, the fleet management market in Mexico will grow exponentially in the near future. Fleet managers in Mexico increasingly realise that running a fleet requires expertise and we expect them to turn to an experienced partner to support them in controlling their fleet cost and managing the services and service levels related to their fleet. Our professional team, a mix of local and international experts, is ready to respond to these trends.”

In the light of the current global economical situation, LeasePlan recently announced to slow down the expansion strategy of the last years. Nevertheless, the opportunity to begin operations in a promising new market such as Mexico is expected to contribute to the success of the company as a whole and further increases our international coverage. LeasePlan’s international coverage now consists of offices in 23 European countries, Australia, Brazil, India, Mexico, New Zealand, United Arab Emirates and the United States. In addition LeasePlan has alliances in the Baltic States and South Africa.
