George attributes the success of Kansas City Transportation to his experienced management team and the hard working people who deliver service every day. George continues to pursue the latest technologies to insure his services remain competitive. This includes the launch of the zTrip mobile app that allows users to hail taxis and black cars with a few taps on their smartphones.
Pioneering a new concept in suburban taxi operations called “10/10 Taxi”, George, created a new model for taxi service giving customers a 10 minute pick up window and a $10 flat fare within five miles, that has proven very popular. The “10/10 Taxi” model is now expanding to multiple cities in the U.S. including Minneapolis, Austin, Orlando and more.
George was presented with the award on October 16th at the TLPA’s annual convention held at The Grand Hyatt San Antonio/Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center. This year marks the TLPA’s 96th Annual Convention & Trade Show, the world’s largest gathering of for-hire fleet executives.
