Uber has announced the launch of its new Uber Connect service in South Africa, allowing customers to send packages to one another through the app.
The service will allow users to send items to each other by requesting “Uber Connect” through the Uber app, said Frans Hiemstra, general manager for Sub-Saharan Africa.
Safety remains a top priority and Uber Connect follows all relevant hygiene and safety protocols, he said
These include the requirement of masks for all drivers, as well as the completion of a safety checklist which reminds drivers to wash their hands and sanitise their relevant delivery bags. Senders and recipients will also need to follow a checklist to ensure social distancing measures are followed, he said.
