The story of Enterprise began with Jack Crawford Taylor’s vision. Jack’s character was shaped by his naval experiences as an officer and pilot where he learned the importance of honesty, hard work, dedication, collaboration, and doing things correctly, is the only way to succeed. After the war, Jack was a successful Cadillac salesperson at Lindburg Dealership in St. Louis Missouri, which gave him financial security and knowledge about the car industry. During a visit to Chicago, Jack observed the ease and convenience of Cadillac’s leasing options and recognized the opportunity for growth potential in this market, since few companies offered car leases.
