Franchise Taxi 'Tada Light' to Launch Within the Year... "Operating in Seoul and Busan"

[Asia Economy Reporter Buaeri] 'Tada' is making a full-scale entry into the franchise taxi market.

'Tada' operator VCNC announced on the 28th, "We have received approval for the taxi transportation franchise business license from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport," adding, "We plan to launch the franchise taxi service starting with Seoul and Busan within this year at the earliest."

Tada's franchise taxis will be based on mid-sized taxis and operated under the name 'Tada Light.'

VCNC has also started recruiting drivers. Drivers wishing to operate Tada Light can apply through major job sites starting today. After a screening and training process, drivers will be employed by the franchise taxi companies of their choice.

VCNC plans to apply for a regulatory sandbox review with the Ministry of Science and ICT to obtain a temporary permit for operating a GPS-based app meter. The app meter is a smartphone terminal service that calculates and charges taxi fares based on GPS location information, time, and distance.

Park Jae-wook, CEO of VCNC, stated, "We will prepare various additional services to ensure users can travel conveniently and safely."
