FREENOW and Taxi Zentrale Erlangen cooperate
The aim is to sustainably strengthen the local taxi industry and improve the availability of rides for private and business customers through digital mediation, explained the two cooperation partners. Drivers who have previously been connected to the central office are now also reachable via FREENOW – this means that over 80 percent of all taxis available in the region can now be booked through the app. FREENOW continues to expand its availability in German cities.
Focus on Erlangen as an Economic and Innovation Hub
The cooperation is coming into play exactly where it is particularly needed: Erlangen and Herzogenaurach are characterized by a high demand for mobility. Business travelers, commuters, and locals equally benefit from the digital taxi dispatch, which offers a reliable and flexible mobility solution.
“This partnership demonstrates: We stand closely alongside the taxi industry and are purposefully leading it into the future,” says Andreas Maier, General Manager of FREENOW in Germany & Austria. “Erlangen is a strong economic location with high innovative power – exactly the right place to further advance the digital networking of the taxi industry. With our technology and reach, we create new growth opportunities for taxi operators and offer passengers an even more reliable and efficient transport solution.”
The Taxi Zentrale Erlangen also emphasizes the importance of this collaboration:
“This cooperation gives our entrepreneurs a real competitive advantage. Through the additional digital mediation, we can reach even more passengers and optimally meet the increasing demand for flexible mobility solutions,” says Senol Yüksel, board member of the Taxi Zentrale Erlangen.
His board colleague Antonia von Kleinsorgen also emphasizes:
“We are taking the Taxi Zentrale Erlangen to a new level with our FREENOW partnership. Our service will become even more future- and customer-oriented – and with better utilization for the companies. We are making positive impacts on both sides – and that is a good thing.”
Erlangen becomes a pioneer for digital taxi infrastructure
The future of mobility is digital, connected, and locally embedded. Together with the Taxi Zentrale Erlangen, a modern and sustainable taxi infrastructure will be created according to Andreas Maiervon FREENOW, establishing the taxi as an indispensable means of transport. Erlangen will thus become a pioneer for the digital transformation of the taxi industry in Germany.
