Leeds’ largest taxi and private hire vehicle operator, Amber Cars (part of the Veezu Group), has acquired Pudsey B-Line to further expand its service area across West Yorkshire.

The acquisition of Pudsey B-Line will see the Veezu Group partner with an additional 50 licensed vehicles in West Leeds.

Operating under the existing Amber Cars brand, the deal aims to provide the Pudsey B-Line drivers and their passengers an even better experience with better technology and multiple ways to easily book and pay for journeys.

Chris Neary, Amber Cars Regional Director, said: “This is great news for Pudsey B-Line drivers and their passengers. Residents and businesses will benefit from increased capacity, and more ways to book journeys. Amber Cars has market-leading technology and excellent service standards.”

The deal to acquire Pudsey B-Line is the third acquisition by Amber Cars within 13 months. In early 2020, Gee Gee Cars - located in Beeston, and Premier Cars - based in Moortown, joined the ranks at Amber Cars.

Amber Cars is owned by transportation technology innovators Veezu Group. Veezu has four other major service hubs throughout the UK, each operating under established local brands – A2B Radio Cars in the West Midlands, Go Carz in Shropshire, V Cars in the South West, and Dragon Taxis in South Wales.
