Are they not? I hear of tons of ride sharing companies every week almost always in very local areas. Seems like they have a ton of competition everywhere. At least anecdotally that's how it looks to me.
- jfoster 10y agoAre there any examples of cities where Uber operates with multiple viable competitors? I'm aware of cities where it's Uber v Lyft or Uber v Grab, but have yet to hear of any 3-way races. Groupon is an example of a business that truly had very little competitive barriers. As a result, every second startup was working on a deals site. Even so, in the end, it wasn't even the competitors that brought Groupon down. Groupon brought Groupon down.
