“Italian style” is the key element that distinguishes Sicily by Car, which is driving forward its international expansion plan.
“Development in Europe and, more generally, internationally”
The company is active in short- and medium-term leisure car hire, and it is expanding its presence well beyond national borders. “I am very optimistic about the company's development in Europe and, more generally, internationally,- confirms the president, Tommaso Dragotto. -I believe that expansion beyond national borders is the only viable path after 63 years of activity: I am counting on our business model as a distinctive and qualifying factor to attract leisure tourism in the four-wheel mobility segment. We aim to conquer new destinations with high tourist traffic in the name of a company that was proudly founded in Sicily and has developed worldwide."
Many new openings in the pipeline
Following its listing on the stock exchange Sicily by Car pursued an international development plan that led it to work in the main European tourist markets. Present in Albania, Malta, France and Austria, the company is also focusing on expansion in the Balkans and the Iberian Peninsula. Among the destinations covered by the company's offices are Croatia and Montenegro. Upcoming openings include Valencia, Madrid, Barcelona and Faro. Rotterdam and Amsterdam are also on the way.
A family business with international ambitions
While international expansion is important, in Italy the company has 60 offices and a widespread service that is also reflected in its 30 offices abroad. The organizational structure employs approximately 600 people in Italy and 250 abroad. In his speech at the recent BIT travel show, the president underscored how the company's growth has never caused it to lose its original identity: a company that has developed while maintaining a family business culture, but with a managerial vision and international ambitions.
Growth through geographical expansion
The presentation at BIT also put the focus on human capital. “The company must be a great place to work. Hence the need to invest in employees, enhancing their skills and creating a stimulating and stable professional environment,” said Dragotto 2026 not only marks an important milestone, but also starts a new phase of development. The strategy envisages growth through geographical expansion, revenue diversification and greater integration with the most dynamic European markets, while continuing to preserve the necessary independence.
