Drivers on the ComCab network have on average 20 years’ experience in the industry and have all passed the world renowned ‘Knowledge of London’. ComCab is also an award-winning business having been recognised for keeping London moving during the COVID-19 crisis.
Addison Lee’s CEO, Liam Griffin, said: “With restrictions in the capital set to lift shortly, business and passenger travel will increase. By uniting Addison Lee and ComCab under one roof, we become the market leader in offering Londoners safety, premium quality, and professional service at scale in the capital.”
