Or just because there are so many business loans in Kenya – including youth fund – ready to help young entrepreneurs grow.

What Else Do You Need to Start Your Car Hire Business in Kenya Without a Car?
- You need licenses/business permits to run the business. (Get them from your county government)
- Set up an office space

- Leverage your social networks and your partners for free social media marketing. Speaking of which, you can also list your fleet on OLX, PIGIAME, Rent -and- Return among other top service platforms.
- Pay prompt commissions to your partners.
- Don’t breach your contract -and- you will stay in the business longer.
Benefits of Starting a Car Hire Business in Kenya
Good returns – Car owners are paid Ksh. 35,000 – Ksh. 40,000 if they lease their cars to fleet management businesses.
This means that as a fleet business owner, anything above Ksh. 40,000 is your profit. Most cars in good condition can do an average of Ksh. 60,000 -and- 90,000.
There is a need for cars all across the country – in businesses, weddings, by government, NGOs name it – making the car hire business a worthy venture.
When the business starts performing well -and- you have bank statements to show for your business account, you can get asset financing to buy your cars.
