The managing director of Carrentals.co.uk, Gareth Robinson, said “Greenlight’s report highlights the strength of our position online, with our expertise in search engine optimization positioning us at the forefront of the market. Despite the recession, 2009 has been a great year for us, with our sales outstripping targets across the board.”

“We’re very proud of the results we have achieved to date, but know that there is still far more potential in the market and we will be looking to further develop our services going into 2010 to help strengthen our existing position.”
