Angkas plans to offer car service
MOTORCYCLE taxi and delivery service provider Angkas is widening its horizon as it seeks to enter the four-wheel transportation network vehicle service (Tnvs) market through a new offering dubbed Angcars.
This development is included in the company’s announcement of its key initiatives and plans to continue offer innovative new services for Filipinos and modernization programs for stakeholders while ensuring the company’s further growth for the year.
“Angcars is designed to be an advanced ride-hailing app that seamlessly blends affordability with userfriendly navigation,” Angkas Ceo george royeca said in a recent townhall, titled “2024 and Beyond.”
According to him, the soon-tobe-launched app aims to introduce options like Angcars economy and Angcars Plus that allow passengers to effortlessly request four- or sixseater vehicles.
Amid its intention to diversify, the firm remains focused on expanding further its two-wheel taxi-hailing app with new services and initiatives for bikers.
Upcoming additions to its service features include Angkas Health, which brings healthcare services to homes through a straightforward five-step process that includes home service blood testing by Philippine red Cross-licensed medical professionals.
Another is Angkas Padala, which is intuitive with digital seller tools, payment and disbursement access, along with nationwide courier services that address the emerging needs of Filipino “e-preneurs.”
For riders’ financial inclusion and empowerment, royeca introduced the Angkash initiative that offers low-cost loans to assist them in acquiring or upgrading their motorcycles. The program offers reduced interest rates to enhance financial flexibility and mobility.
In partnership with automobile manufacturing giant Honda and Uno Bank, with the end goal of rearing a new generation of micro-entrepreneurs among Angkas bikers, the revamped Angkash seeks to extend this drive to a bigger portion of the biker fleet.
royeca also delved on the need for the homegrown company to guarantee maximum levels of efficiency in terms of finding the right balance between manpower and service delivery, vis-à-vis operations.
To help realize Angkas plans for 2024, royeca rallied employees to continue delivering “innovative quality services.”
