The financing is an amount unprecedented by domestic market standards, making the Fasarna Ventures fund a record investment. It is worth mentioning that FlexCar has already made investments of more than 100 million euros in the markets where it operates, having managed in just 3 years to increase its turnover eightfold and establish itself as a profitable company.
