JAKARTA - The taxi company belonging to the conglomerate Purnomo Prawiro, PT Blue Bird Tbk (BIRD) targets an additional 4,000 to 5,000 taxi units by the end of 2022.
Blue Bird President Director Sigit Priawan Djokosoetono said the target was in line with the company's efforts to execute vehicle rejuvenation for this year. This is done for the sake of flexibility of demand in the market.
"We have the flexibility to rejuvenate faster or maintain vehicles that are in accordance with the demand," said Sigit at the Blue Bird Performance Measurement event, some time ago.
Furthermore, Sigit said, every year the company can sell 2,500 - 3,000 used taxi cars. Currently, the taxi company is balancing the availability and demand of used cars.
According to Sigit, rejuvenation by selling cars can provide an increase in capital gains per car.
