A GROWING corporate sector in Serbia and Montenegro has prompted National Car Rental to expand into the area.

It already has operations in Croatia and Bosnia & Herzegovina, having partnered Sime and Frane Barac, which it says is the largest car rental company in Croatia.

The latest partnership is with a company called Kompas and corporate customers will be offered a choice of Citroen, Fiat and Opel.

Neil Summerville, vice-president franchising for National said: 'This is a great opportunity to further expand its European network.'
