Veezu acquires Dudley taxi firm Triple 20 Taxi Cars Ltd

The UK's largest and fastest-growing private hire technology business Veezu has acquired Dudley’s Triple 20 Taxi Cars Ltd, which operates under the Triple 20 Taxis and Brookfleet Cars brands across the West Midlands.

The acquisition expands Veezu’s presence into Dudley and Sandwell and builds on its established regional network across Birmingham, Solihull, Wolverhampton, Shrewsbury and Telford.

It also supports Veezu’s mission to strengthen local transport and connectivity while delivering smarter, more joined-up services for the communities it serves.

Brookfleet Cars, established in Blackheath in 1973, is a long-standing family-run private hire operator in the region. Together, Triple 20 Taxis and Brookfleet Cars partner with around 270 self-employed driver-partners and provide local journeys, airport transfers and corporate travel.

Passengers will continue to receive the same trusted local service - enhanced by Veezu’s technology and national scale including its app which offers real-time vehicle tracking, improved address search and multiple payment options such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, card and cash. Passengers can also pre-book journeys in advance, offering greater flexibility and convenience.

Founded in Wales in 2013, Veezu is the UK’s largest homegrown private hire vehicle business, partnering with thousands of self-employed driver-partners and completing more than 25 million rides annually. The company now operates across hundreds of towns and cities nationwide and is licensed by 63 local authorities across England and Wales.

Jon Martin, managing director at Veezu, said: "Triple 20 Taxis and Brookfleet Cars are highly respected local brands with strong ties to communities across Dudley and Sandwell. We are delighted to welcome them into our West Midlands network as we continue to expand our series of local transport hubs across the UK.

“This next joint chapter means even better support for people's travel needs around the clock, bringing together the trusted local service people know and enjoy, now supported by Veezu’s technology and wider network."
