Grab Philippines officially launched its flagship mobility service GrabCar in Roxas City, Capiz, with a fleet of more than 20 vehicles, covering an expansive serviceable area, which includes the Roxas City Airport.
As the first app-based ride-hailing service in Roxas City, GrabCar efficiently connects drivers with the commuting public – composed of locals and visiting tourists, who seek a tech-driven mobility alternative that is safe, transparent, and convenient.
The entry of GrabCar was officially announced Nov. 5 in an event led by Roxas City Mayor Ronnie Dadivas and leaders from Grab Philippines.
“An efficient transportation landscape is essential to a city’s economic progress. As the local government of Roxas looks toward a bigger, better, and brighter future for its citizens, and seeks to enhance the experience for its visitors, we are proud to welcome digital mobility solutions, like GrabCar. This service also effectively broadens our capacity to serve a growing population of commuters,” Dadivas said.
GrabCar, the flagship mobility service of the leading superapp Grab, is now available in more than 10 cities across the country. It said in a press release that commuters favor GrabCar mainly due to accessible safety features, transparent fares, and convenient access.
Grab Philippines vice president for City Operations CJ Lacsican highlighted Grab’s dedication to elevating the experience of the Filipino commuter. “We are unwavering in our commitment to providing every Filipino with an additional option for their daily commute – one that cares for them from the moment they step out of their doors and start booking, to the time they reach their destination.:
“This customer-centric approach is embodied by our well-trained fleet of driver-partners, who have undergone rigorous onboarding and assessment processes to ensure that every GrabCar passenger experiences top-notch mobility — one that is safe, transparent, and convenient. It fills our hearts with pride to officially say, ‘Ari na kami sa Roxas City’ as we look forward to serving more Capiznon commuters,” Lacsican said.
The introduction of GrabCar in Roxas City marked Grab’s continued growth in the Western Visayas region, now covering the entire Iloilo province and extending to the neighboring provinces of Antique, Capiz, and Aklan, as well as Metro Bacolod and Northern Bacolod. ||
