What started out as a business plan for college students is now a reality in the Phoenix area. Just this spring, four students from Arizona State University (ASU) competed in the “Better Living Business Plan Challenge” in Bentonville Arkasas. The competition was comprised of students from nine leading universities who submitted business plans to the Wal-Mart home office.
The students submitted their Green Taxi Cab idea, and might not have won, but their idea is now reality.
Green Taxi Cab is an environmentally and socially responsible taxi company, and is Arizona’s first all-hybrid taxi service. The cab company services Maricopa and Pinal counties. So what does the “Clean and friendly” cab service offer? They claim that ”because our Toyota Prius taxi cabs are less costly to operate than the industry standard, they offer a better value for customers and drivers alike. We have some of the cheapest rates in the Phoenix area, and we do it all while reducing greenhouse gas emissions”. Their claim is that Green Taxi Cab emits 75% less carbon than trational taxi cab companies. The next time you need a lift, you might want to consider Green Taxi Cab!! Why not save on your cab fare and save the environment?
