Uklon expands presence to 5 more cities in Uzbekistan
Uklon has begun connecting drivers to its service in five new Uzbek cities - Fergana, Margilan, Kokand, Namangan and Andijan - expanding its presence beyond Tashkent, the online taxi service said on Wednesday.
Uklon, the online taxi service, has expanded its reach to five additional cities in Uzbekistan, joining Tashkent already on its service list. The new cities are Fergana, Margilan, Kokand, Namangan, and Andijan. CEO Serhiy Hryshkov announced this expansion, stating that it aims to establish a foundation for long-term growth and bring the same high-quality, reliable service to Uzbekistan's dynamic regions.
Since August 5, drivers have been able to sign up and connect to the Uklon Driver app. Users in Kokand and Namangan will have access to Lite and Comfort classes, while Andijan, Fergana, and Margilan will offer Lite, Comfort, and Quick Search services. The company's round-the-clock support will also be available to customers in these new cities.
These cities, collectively, are home to nearly 11 million people, accounting for about 29% of the country's population. Fergana, Andijan, and Namangan are particularly densely populated areas. Uklon has been operating in Uzbekistan since June 2023, with over 15 million trips completed in the previous year. The company employs around 90 people in Uzbekistan, with approximately 50 focusing on support, including Driver Care and Customer Care.
In the second quarter of 2026, Uklon generated UAH 1.448 billion ($32.8 million) in revenue, with an EBITDA of UAH 554 million ($12.5 million). Booked trips increased by 4.5% to 43 million, and completed deliveries rose by 25.9% to 1.4 million. The company's digital monthly active users grew by 8.2% to 5.2 million.
