Autohorn Fleet Services celebrates 30 years of growth

This September, Autohorn celebrates its 30th anniversary, marking three decades of growth, innovation and service.

Autohorn began in 1995 as a small vehicle rental office operating from a York railway station platform with nine Rovers 400s, and is now one of the country’s leading vehicle hire and fleet providers. Today Autohorn operates from a 24-acre purpose built site, serving a national customer base while remaining a cornerstone of York’s business community.

Since its inception, Autohorn has grown into a full vehicle solution provider offering car and van rental, contract hire, salary sacrifice and subscription. Strategic growth remains core to Autohorn’s operating model and it continues to explore new opportunities for further expansion across the fleet and mobility sector.

“Reaching 30 years is a fantastic achievement and testament to the hard work of our whole team. When we started out in 1995, we could not have imagined the scale of the business as it stands today – we’re very proud of the business we’ve built and our long-standing customer relationships. We’re now looking forward to the next chapter as we continue to expand and innovate – here’s to the next 30 years!” 

– Scott Jenkins, Operations and Sales Director for Autohorn Fleet Services
