UBER wants to add more than 15,000 new job opportunities for partner-drivers in SA over the next two years as well as lift-sharing and other new services, as it builds on the exponential growth it has seen since it launched in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban less than three years ago.
Lits says Uber is looking to launch in another six African countries this year and is working to devise innovative solutions to challenges on the continent, such as inadequate mapping and low access to credit cards.
