VIP ride app is expanding in Australia, for when you’re too fancy for an Uber
Blacklane, a German company with a premium chauffeur service, has opened a new office in Brisbane as it looks to expand further across Australia.
The Berlin-headquartered firm, which allows people to book a ride via an app and a website, is primarily targeted at business executives that want to get from A to B in something a bit more swanky than a standard Uber X. Unlike Uber, however, Blacklane rides need to be booked in advance.
“Blacklane’s presence across Australia, Brisbane’s location, and Brisbane’s skilled workforce make it ideal for our growth. We are hiring a crew who loves to travel and loves to make travellers’ journeys stress-free,” Jens Wohltorf, CEO and cofounder of Blacklane, said.
The Brisbane office is Blacklane’s fourth worldwide, with others in Berlin, Singapore, and Dubai.
