New Business Spotlight: Ride Local

In this episode, we've got Brandon Gandy from the Tifton Talks Facebook group. Brandon's been around, did web design for a bit, then switched to driving for Uber and Lyft all around. After the pandemic, he returned to Tifton, where the ride business is a bit different. He discussed the challenges of making a living with Uber in Tifton, mentioning the shutdown of another local cab service.Brandon’s now launched Ride Local Tifton, a competitor to Uber and Lyft. He highlighted the issues with those platforms—low pay for drivers, high charges for riders. Ride Local Tifton aims to change that, offering drivers 80% of fares and 100% of tips, plus cheaper rides for users. Brandon plans to expand this model to other small areas. He shared insights on the challenges and potential strategies for success.RideLocal – Tifton – Local Affordable Rideshare (ridelocaltifton.com)
