Montréal Partners Green meetings Working Smarter

There’s a new electric transport option in town! Véco Taxi is a transportation service with an app that enables you to singlehandedly plan your team or VIP delegates’ movements in full confidence and peace of mind. Not only can you plan the transport yourself by ordering multiple vehicles to a single location, you can also prioritize electric vehicles, in keeping with your values and to help your event’s sustainability efforts. 

Driven by a green mission

Véco’s mission is to provide efficient transportation service at a competitive price. But more importantly, their dream is to be entirely carbon neutral: with many electric cars already in their fleet, they’re continuously expanding on that front. Their corporate services platforms (both online and by app) are easy to use, reliable, safe and fair: no unfair pricing for you, no unfair conditions for the drivers. Each of their drivers is carefully selected, meeting and exceeding government requirements and laws, so you can ensure your delegates’ safety.

Corporate services on offer

By creating a corporate account for your team or VIP event delegates, you can benefit from two payment options: either per ride, to the driver, or centralized on your corporate account, with monthly reports to enable you to oversee all transactions.

Among the popular services offered, the airport meet & greet is among the most appreciated, offering an exclusive and personalized service that includes contact as soon as the client lands. The driver will check the status of the flight, welcome the client at the gates and get them to destination in central Montréal for a fixed price of $75, tip and taxes included.

Another option is to hire Véco for their discovery tour: the service shuttles the client to some of the city’s most famous attractions within the comfort of an electric vehicle. There are three different circuits available: a 2-hour tour for $160, a 3-hour tour for $230, and a 4-hour signature tour for $300.

For events transportation, you can organize a small fleet of electric vehicles for your speakers, for example, for the duration of an event, or to shuttle them to offsites in full comfort. Event transport services are available at different rates and levels, ranging from a basic per-ride price to an overall valet service with round-the-clock availability.

Fuelled by intelligent technology

Véco has grown its service in the last year by collaborating with Paxi Technologies Inc., a local company that has been succeeding in the commercial transport industry for nearly a decade. Paxi made its name in the taxi business with tools like card payment technologies, vinyl vehicle wraps and sales registration technologies certified by Revenu Québec. By joining forces with Paxi, Véco has already increased its network to include approximately 1,500 drivers.

Montréal’s sustainable transport promise

Montréal is a hotbed of innovation, and that includes two booming industries: sustainable mobility and intelligent transportation. Living up to the city’s ranking among the world’s most sustainable cities, Montréal’s plan for increasing renewable energy use includes a considerable commitment from the transport industry. One of the main commitments is a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions with the objective of becoming carbon-neutral by 2050. 

Thanks to Véco for joining in the efforts!
