Singapore's largest land transport operator, running taxis, buses and car rentals across Singapore, UK, Australia and China.
Public-transport contracts, where an authority pays the operator a fee to run bus and rail services rather than relying on fares alone, carry the company, including Singapore bus packages and London routes through its Metroline unit. Taxi and private-hire fares and vehicle rentals are a smaller line that faces ride-hailing apps.
In one line: Singapore's largest land transport operator - taxis, buses and car rentals globally.
Moat: narrow (scale, regulatory licence, installed base). Large fleet scale and public transport concession contracts across multiple countries.
Headquarters: Singapore · Founded: 1970 · Employees: 26,000
