Shudl | Application Preview
Shudl is seeking government grants to enhance its operations and better serve the community. The funding will be used to pay off existing car loans and acquire new vehicles for their fleet, ensuring safe and reliable transportation by replacing high-mileage cars. Additionally, they aim to secure office space with a dedicated shop, moving out from a home office setup.
The business plan focuses on expanding partnerships with organizations like United Way and finding ways to lower costs for individuals who pay privately. Shudl also intends to extend its service area to include surrounding counties while increasing the number of drivers and vehicles in its fleet.
The reason for approving the funding lies in Shudl's commitment to transforming transportation services to prioritize respect and care for individuals who struggle with current options. They want to bridge significant gaps for those in need of dependable transportation.
Shudl's main competitors include Idaho Transportation, which serves only Medicaid clients, as well as public transportation services and ride-sharing companies like Uber and Lyft. However, Shudl distinguishes itself by targeting populations that either cannot use public transport or face financial barriers, ensuring that their services are accessible to everyone.
