The company Tembici has a partnership with the Itaú bank and will soon make the vehicles available to be requested by the Uber application. The project has the initiative in Recife, in the capital of Pernambuco, and will continue to other Brazilian capitals that already have Tembici's service.
This is an ad that demonstrates a determined desire by Uber to reduce carbon emissions, as guided the global head of Uber, Annie Duvnjak, highlighting the importance of reducing the amount of use of cars.
“This partnership shows the important role that car-free options are increasingly playing in the company's strategy. Uber to reach zero carbon emissions,” said Duvnjak.
After Recife, the cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Porto Alegre will be considered and all those who already have shared bikes will be able to access the novelty in the Uber application.
Tembici operates in countries other than Brazil
Tembici's projects have shown commitment to growth in Latin America. Recently, a BNDES loan of R$ 160 million was made to invest in bicycle factories in Manaus. The company's focus is to offer the Latin American population around 30,000 bicycles.
In addition to Brazil, Tembici has grown in the capitals of other South American countries: Bogotá, Colombia; In Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Santiago, Chile, people can now hire a shared bicycle service.
In the Uber app, however, users will need to wait a little longer. The company did not disclose dates and left only the proposal open. In the meantime, we are still waiting for the companies to join that will guarantee the best service to the population.
