New company<br />

with a new<br />

vision<br />

Innovation is one of<br />

the core focuses of<br />

P2P Transport and the<br />

company is developing<br />

many innovative<br />

offerings that will attract<br />

more customers and<br />

more drivers into our<br />

industry.<br />

The same disruption and devastation<br />

that the Victorian and Australian<br />

taxi industry has faced, we are<br />

now witnessing happening in most<br />

countries around the world.<br />

The status quo and the protection<br />

that taxis and hire cars enjoyed in a<br />

regulated industry is changing for<br />

ever.<br />

Out of this devastation comes<br />

innovation - P2P Transport,<br />

Australia’s largest passenger fleet<br />

company.<br />

This is a story of a group of taxi<br />

fleet operators, who have always<br />

engaged in entrepreneurial ventures,<br />

deciding that the way forward<br />

needed to change. The founders of<br />

P2P Transport took time to study<br />

successful taxi fleet models around<br />

the world and decided it was the right<br />

time to launch a similar business in<br />

the Australian market.<br />

This venture was years in the<br />

making and in March 2017 TaxiLink<br />

(Melbourne’s largest operator) and<br />

the Taxi Base (Sydney’s largest fleet<br />

operator) joined forces to create P2P<br />

Transport.<br />

Originally from humble beginnings<br />

with small fleets the founders<br />

managed to grow their fleet to 784<br />

vehicles and as a result successfully<br />

listed the business on the ASX on<br />

13 December 2017 and since then<br />

the growth of P2P Transport has<br />

accelerated.<br />

“The focus has always been on<br />

delivering value to our drivers and<br />

making sure we deliver excellent<br />

service to all our passengers,” says<br />

P2P Director, Harry Katsiabanis.<br />

On 15 May <strong>2018</strong>, P2P Transport<br />

announced to the market the<br />

acquisition of Black & White Cabs in<br />

Brisbane. P2P Transport will acquire<br />

100% of Black & White Cabs, subject<br />

to due diligence and other regulatory<br />

requirements.<br />

Greg Webb, Managing Director of<br />

Black & White Cabs, will remain in<br />

his position and will join the P2P<br />

Transport board bringing decades of<br />

industry experience with him.<br />

P2P Transport engages in many<br />

associated businesses which include:<br />

Australia Wide Chauffeured Cars:<br />

Premium limo fleet<br />

Zevra:<br />

Consumer facing brand focused on<br />

delivering value to all our drivers and<br />

passengers<br />

Ad Flow:<br />

The industry’s most innovative<br />

advertising company featuring the Ad<br />

Flow Digital Top.<br />

Hub:<br />

Centralised repair centres that<br />

provide mechanical and panel<br />

beating repairs not only to the P2P<br />

fleet but to the entire industry.<br />

P2P Transport believes that an<br />

opportunity exists for all other<br />

stakeholders to work closely together<br />

to take advantage of the scale that<br />

P2P Transport brings to the industry.<br />

In the words of one of the greatest<br />

innovators of our time:<br />

“All our dreams can come true, if we<br />

have the courage to pursue them”<br />

Walt Disney.<br />

These words resonate with the P2P<br />

Transport team and together we, as<br />

an industry, can make these dreams<br />

come true.<br />
