In line with smoother and faster business operations amid the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, motorcycle ride-hailing firms JoyRide and Happy Move have partnered with PLDT Enterprise to provide riders and drivers with communication and connectivity tools.
Amid the enhanced community quarantine, JoyRide and Happy Move also provided job opportunities to around 10,000 tricycle drivers through a partnership with various local government units (LGUs).
The said collaboration is aimed to augment the platforms’ point-to-point delivery and concierge services dubbed as JoyRide Pabili.
“Our latest project with the local government units, the tricycle drivers conversion to independent delivery service providers, is a further testament to the commitment of JoyRide and Happy Move to assist public and private entities in creating jobs and livelihood opportunities during this pandemic. JoyRide and Happy Move will continue to be a true partner and “kasundo” of the Filipino in good times and in bad,” said Noli Eala, JoyRide Vice President for Corporate Affairs.
Its partnership with PLDT Enterprise empowers JoyRide and Happy Move’s partner riders through the Smart Bizload which they can utilize to communicate with customers during deliveries.
With PLDT Enterprise onboard, JoyRide and Happy Move have also activated the Smart Messaging Suite Service which secures the registration of new Joyride customers. This tool can also be used for text blasts.
“We at PLDT Enterprise continue to commit to being of service to Filipinos while fighting COVID-19,”said Jovy Hernandez, ePLDT President & CEO and SVP Head for PLDT and Smart Enterprise Business Groups. “These services will enable Joyride and Happy Move to blast news and announcements to our riders and help make their delivery service accessible and efficiently to those who need it.”
“We applaud JoyRide and Happy Move that amidst the job losses these past months, they have given hope to many riders. Their delivery services have been in great demand since the pandemic, and PLDT Enterprise’s solutions have enabled JoyRide and Happy Move to ensure strong connectivity and reliable service,” Hernandez added.
