EagleRider Offers Discount up to 15 Percent off Franchise Fee for Veterans

World's Largest Motorcycle Rental Company and VetFran Help Those That Have Served

2011-03-19

HAWTHORNE, CA, March 19, 2011 (Press-News.org) EagleRider, the worldâEUR s largest motorcycle rental and tour company, is getting behind the men and women that have served in the U.S. Military. EagleRider has joined VetFran, a program aimed at helping veterans realize their dream of owning their own business. EagleRider will offer veterans a discount of 15 percent off the franchise fee.

To grow the brand, EagleRider seeks out people who are not only entrepreneurs, but who also have a passion for the motorcycle rental and tourism trade, and the freedom and self-reliance of motorcycle riding has been synonymous with veterans for generations. With a proven business model combined with the low startup cost for an EagleRider franchise, the offer makes it more accessible than ever for veterans to get into this electrifying industry.

âEURœThis isnâEUR t just a great opportunity for veterans,âEUR said Ben Amante, VP of Franchising. âEURœIt is a great opportunity for EageRider because the experience and discipline of veterans will make for a great representation of the brand.âEUR

However, for EagleRider helping veterans is also a personal affair. Amante himself is an Army veteran and has a son who is currently serving in Afghanistan.

Since EagleRiderâEUR s initial launch, the company has pioneered the Harley-DavidsonÂ motorcycle rental concept and the guided motorcycle tour business in the most desirable tourist destinations in the world. Today, the franchise offers a complete line of vehicles making virtually any travelerâEUR s idyllic itinerary possible.
