Pace Car Rental

Pace Car Rental was founded by Grenville Salmon, who was previously working for Imperial Car Rental when he thought, “I can do this better”. In May 2006 Grenville bought one minibus. As luck would have it, the first booking request was not for a minibus. Quick planning resulted in Grenville giving his mom his old GTI, while he rented his mom’s car to the customer and drove the minibus. This started an exciting journey where Gren, together with his wife Berné and their friendly team, started to grow the Pace fleet.

Pace Car Rental soon became an innovative car rental company and national brand with thousands of cars from which to choose.We do not forget the teams of loyal staff all working together to help people get mobile and be productive in the economy. Today Pace is one of the largest privately owned, home grown car rental brands in South Africa. We have branches in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town Airport, Cape Town City Centre, Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth), and Umhlanga.
