Introduction
The company that I will be starting is a car rental service, which I plan to call "Road Runner Car Rental". This is being formed as a private company completely owned by me and which will offer services to the Bahrain & Saudi customers. RR car rental will offer well-maintained cars for individuals, families and business delegates for rental and chauffer driven services.
I plan to start the company with a good initial investment, leaving no stone unturned for marketing, advertisement and the overall look of the company. Although there are many car rental companies in Bahrain, I feel my company will stand out due to its unique services and customer satisfaction. As part of company expansion, there are future plans of opening driving training institute and a branch office in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
I, Ms. Mae will be the sole investor and owner of the company. All the responsibilities for the services, assets and company decisions will be undertaken by me. The company will be located in the Exhibition area,
