“In Bucharest we’re getting close to 100,000 people who choose Uber as a trusted service, whether they go out into town or they choose to go to the airport, go shopping, go to work, school or home. We continue to work hard to make the mobility inside the city accessible to everyone everywhere,” said Nicoleta Schroeder, general manager of Uber Romania.
The Uber company was founded in 2009 in the United States of America and has slowly, but steadily become one of the most popular transportation services in the USA. The company arrived in Bucharest in February 2015 and offers three services: uberX, UberSELECT and Uber Child Seat.
