constantly developing our affiliate network and geographical reach. In some markets, we don’ t have a physical presence but rather act as an intermediary. The way it works is, if you are in the UK, for example, and we get a request for a pick-up from Heathrow International Airport, we consult our list of curated and approved affiliates who meet not only our rigorous safety standards but also the level of service our customers have come to expect in terms of vehicles and chauffeurs.”
Edward then reflects on how company culture and diversity among the workforce have contributed to the company’ s history of success:“ Our Founder Daniel Perez is Colombian-born and came to the US as a young teenager. He began the company from scratch and has developed it into what you see today. Because he is from Colombia, as a way to give back to the community and country, we have a large base there. It is a very diverse organization, and that is something we carry with great pride.”
Looking ahead to the rest of the year, Edward goes on to outline the company’ s priorities for the coming months:“ We have a couple of contracts that we are looking to implement in the latter half of 2025. In addition to that, the largest priority that we have is to remain profitable and set up for 2026, which projects to be a massive year. To take advantage of the AI revolution, we also have over 200 proposals for more AI integrations, including predictive modelling and predictive pricing.
“ Further afield, in five years,” Edward concludes,“ I think we will easily double the size of the company. That can be achieved even without expanding our global footprint, which we are also working on. We are also looking to be a pioneer of autonomous buses, so that when that moment comes, we will be well ahead of the curve.” ■
