About European Rental Week

European Rental Week is an annual event dedicated to the promotion of rental across Europe. It was developed in collaboration with the National Association and Promotion Committees of ERA. The first European Rental Week will take place from 9 to 15 October with the theme ‘Investing in People’.

The event aims to coordinate promotional activities from rental companies to improve the attractiveness of the industry, raise awareness of the rental concept and promote rental as a sustainable, cost-effective and resource-efficient solution. This year’s event will aim to focus activities on the promotion of the industry as an employer, as well as providing an opportunity to promote rental in general.

Activities within different countries will be coordinated and promoted by the national associations within the European Rental Week framework.
