Chi siamo
Founded in 1963 by Tommaso Dragotto, Sicily by Car, is among the leading operators in short-term leisure car rental, a premium brand capable of competing with major global players in terms of service quality, fleet size, and geographic presence. After a business and commercial expansion plan and, thanks to an experienced and professional managing team, the Company has become a national reality and since 1997 Sicily by Car , going beyond its regional borders and spreading into a bigger market.
Sicily by Car has developed steadily over the years and is now present in all major Italian cities with over 56 offices. Globally, SbC has established B2B partnership agreements with the largest international brokers, guaranteeing worldwide coverage of the car rental service and achieving a leadership position.
In December 2017, the company crossed national borders by landing in Albania, through the subsidiary "SBC Albania Sh.p.k.", where two offices were inaugurated, one in the capital Tirana and one in southern Saranda. Then, in December 2019, the company also landed in Malta: and this was just the beginning!
Sicily by car has recently embarked on an increasingly significant and capillary development abroad: after the opening of offices in Malta and Albania, in 2022 the company landed in France and in 2023 in Austria, Montenegro and Poland, through commercial partnerships, following an expansion project that will lead to the internationalisation of the brand.
The company is also present in Spain through its subsidiary "Sicily by Car Spain S.L.", in Portugal through the subsidiary "Sicily by Car Portugal LDA", in Croatia through the acquired company "Nova Gratia d.o.o.". International expansion represents the main growth driver: the company aims to establish a strong presence in the Iberian Peninsula, Northern Europe, and the Balkans.
