ST. LOUIS, Oct. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Enterprise Holdings, which operates the Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental and Alamo Rent A Car brands, has announced its annual Auction Achievement Award winners.

Nine U.S. automotive auction houses are being honored by Enterprise Holdings, which – through its regional subsidiaries – operates the largest fleet of vehicles in the world through a global network of neighborhood and airport locations. In fact, Enterprise Holdings is the largest car rental company in the world as measured by revenue, fleet and employees. The company has more vehicles, including more than 350 makes and models, than the total fleets of all other U.S. car rental companies combined.

"Our relationships with local auction partners are a critical part of our auto remarketing strategy, and each year we look to recognize some of those partners who excel at what they do," said Nate Lattimer, Enterprise Holdings Vice President for Vehicle Remarketing. "This year's winning automotive auction houses demonstrate values that align closely with our own."

Enterprise Holdings presents Auction Achievement Awards in two categories – whole-car auctions and damage-vehicle auctions – and recognizes recipients for outstanding performance in the areas of strategic planning, communication, operational success, customer service, marketing and reconditioning.

The winners of the 2014 Auction Achievement Award in the whole-car category are:

ADESA Dallas
ADESA Los Angeles
Manheim Omaha
Manheim Riverside (Riverside, Calif.)
Manheim Texas Hobby (Houston, Texas)

The winners of the 2014 Auction Achievement Award in the damage-vehicle category are:

Dealers Auto Auction of the Rockies (Denver, Colo.)
IAA Dallas/Fort Worth
Metro Salvage Pool (Des Moines, Iowa)
TRA Tampa

Enterprise's regional operations work regularly with local auctions. As a result, Enterprise operators are well positioned to nominate their auction partners for the Auction Achievement Awards, as the partnerships shared between these winners and the company's operations contribute to both parties' successes.
