Uber Technologies Incorporated has sealed a pact with Germaine Auto Centre-a Nigeria-based auto service and maintenance company to provide maintenance services to its driver-partners.
With the partnership, Uber driver-partners operating in Lagos can have their cars maintained and serviced at a world-class auto facility at a stipulated fee.
The relationship between both companies, according to Uber, sought to further reinforce Uber’s commitment to driver-partners, and create ways for drivers to maximise their net earnings and enjoy the benefits that came with using the Uber app.
Country Manager for Uber Nigeria, Maria Rotilu, told newsmen after sealing the pact that the overall objective of the partnership was to reduce maintenance cost for Uber drivers and encourage maintenance culture.
Managing Director, Germaine Auto Centre, Gbenga Omolokun, said the partnership with Uber had positioned the company to expand its scope, saying Uber driver-partners would have immediate access to six master technicians, over 40 general technicians, affordable parts and vehicle solutions, and an added bonus of over 200 years working experience combined on all sorts of automobiles.
