Dubai Taxi Corporation, a leader in comprehensive mobility solutions in the city, has announced its acquisition of 600 new taxi plates during the recent auction held by the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) of Dubai. This strategic move is set to bolster its dominance in the transportation market. With this addition, the company’s market share will rise to 47%, confirming its status as the largest taxi operator in the emirate.
This expansion will increase the fleet size from 6,217 to 6,817 vehicles. The newly acquired taxis are scheduled to gradually enter service starting in July, under a carefully planned operational strategy aimed at maintaining high standards of efficiency and service quality while meeting the growing demand for transportation services across various areas of Dubai.
On this occasion, Mansour Rahma Al-Falasi, the CEO of the group, expressed: “Acquiring 600 new taxi plates marks a significant milestone in our company’s growth journey, showcasing our confidence in the tremendous potential of Dubai’s transportation sector, which is experiencing a continual rise in demand alongside urban development initiatives. We take pride in our capability to keep pace with this growth and contribute to building a smarter, more efficient future by providing high-quality transportation services. This expansion will not only enhance our ability to meet the increasing demands but also add sustainable value for our shareholders and support Dubai’s vision of establishing a world-class transportation system.”
Al-Falasi further emphasized that the gradual introduction of the new vehicles into service reflects the company’s strategy of leveraging assets, improving financial performance, and enhancing service quality, thereby solidifying its position as the largest taxi operator in Dubai.
This initiative aligns with the Dubai government’s goals and the RTA’s strategy to develop a smart and integrated transportation system, improve customer experience, and enhance mobility service efficiency, thereby supporting the objectives of Dubai’s economic agenda (D33) and reinforcing the emirate’s status as a global leader in infrastructure and urban services.
