Kyivstar mobile operator building modern mobility ecosystem around Uklon taxi service – CEO
Ukraine's largest mobile operator Kyivstar and online taxi service Uklon, which it acquired in spring 2025, are seeking new growth opportunities amid a degree of stagnation in the number of rides and are working to build a modern mobility ecosystem, Kyivstar CEO and President Oleksandr Komarov said.
Ukraine's largest mobile operator, Kyivstar, and its recently acquired online taxi service Uklon are collaborating to build a modern mobility ecosystem, according to Kyivstar CEO Oleksandr Komarov. Despite the stagnation in the number of rides due to external circumstances, such as the war, the company sees significant growth opportunities in Uklon's delivery business, intercity transportation, and a delivery marketplace.
The number of rides increased by just 1.5% in the third quarter of 2025, while revenue grew by 45.8%, and EBITDA rose by 20.4%. In addition to ride-hailing, Uklon's services include Uklon Delivery, Uklon Ads, Uklon Store, and Uklon Travel, with recent expansion into bus transportation and delivery services in Uzbekistan.
