TADA continues to assist local SMEs
TADA – Cambodia’s fastest-growing ride-hailing app – is continuing its efforts to assist struggling businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Enuring that businesses can still serve their customers wherever they are in Phnom Penh.
With the ride-hailing company just recently assisting the well-known Khmer restaurant Meatophum’s.
“2019 saw a steady growth of our business, thanks to our customers who support us and appreciated our service,” said Rithya Sinh, Meatophum’s General Manager.
But dreams of opening more new branches or investing more in the business were dashed when the virus struck and Meatophum, like so many businesses across the Kingdom, took a big hit.
Things were looking very grim but Sinh started thinking carefully about how to keep money coming into the business.
“That’s when a friend told me that they had seen this new company, TADA, was offering free delivery and I thought, I have to try that. So we began using the service when we reopened our shop on May 1,” said Sinh.
“Of course, when we receive a service for free, we save on our cost. But more importantly, free delivery means our customers will pay less so they can order more. So since we adopted the free delivery service from TADA, our food order increased by 15percent,” said Sinh.
TADA says the launch of its delivery service, which has signed up about 50 mainly small enterprises, has played an important role in keeping businesses and drivers in employment.
“Supporting our drivers, supporting local businesses and supporting the government in their effort to return the country to a normal life are all very important for TADA,” said Poly Chim, General Manager of TADA Cambodia.
