Uber has partnered with LAUGFS Car Care to offer maintenance services for both cars and bikes at an exclusive rate to driver and delivery partners in Sri Lanka.

As part of this partnership, LAUGFS Car Care will be providing the opportunity for Uber’s Support Agents to operate support counters inside selected LAUGFS Car Care service centres. This allows Uber drivers and delivery partners the opportunity to get their support queries resolved with ease. Currently, these support centres are operational at the Kohuwala and Koswatta Car Care Centres.

Uber Sri Lanka Rides Lead Manivannan Kannan said, “There can be no Uber without our drivers and delivery partners. Their safety, health and overall wellbeing is our top priority. We are delighted to announce our partnership with LAUGFS Car Care, which aims to provide a hassle-free vehicle maintenance experience to our drivers. Backed by this partnership, we believe our driver partners will be better equipped to deliver their best when driving on our platform.”

Speaking on this partnership, LAUGFS Lubricants Ltd. and LAUGFS Petroleum Ltd. Chief Executive Officer Niroshan J. Pieries said, “At LAUGFS Car Care, we are excited to be able to partner Uber Sri Lanka, a strong player in providing on-demand transportation services. In keeping with our ambition of being a trusted solution provider in the automobile industry in Sri Lanka, our hope is that the specialised service packages that we offer will help Uber driver partners to provide an exceptional travel experience to the riders.”

LAUGFS Car Care is a fully owned subsidiary of LAUGFS Lubricants Ltd., a part of LAUGFS Holdings Ltd. It prides itself on being a high-quality brand providing Sri Lankan motorists with a range of car care and lubricant solutions, since its inception in 2001.

Uber’s mission is to create opportunity through movement. We started in 2010 to solve a simple problem: how do you get access to a ride at the touch of a button? More than 15 billion trips later, we’re building products to get people closer to where they want to be. By changing how people, food, and things move through cities, Uber is a platform that opens up the world to new possibilities.
