Travelhire Group, the parent of Green Tomato Cars, has acquired London
private hire operator Brunel.
The deal brings together two of London’s best-known operators and
creates a combined fleet with more than 450 drivers.
Brunel was founded as a family business in 1982 and was named best ground transportation company in the 2020 Business Travel Awards.
Travelhire Group’s CEO, Joe Bitran, said: “With the Brunel team on
board we take another step forward and further consolidate our position as the
UK’s most sustainable operator.”
Green Tomato Cars was established as an environmentally friendly
car service in 2006 and operates with the UK's largest fleet of zero-emission
and low emission vehicles. It was the first major operator to guarantee National Minimum Wage and holiday pay for all of
their drivers.
