Many startup carsharing operators go into businesses because they see a market need that is not well served. GreenShareCar was established six years ago in Melbourne Australia when Paul Cummaudo saw the opportunity to reduce parking requirements in new residential apartment buildings by offering shared vehicles to unit owners. GreenShareCar’s mobility service integrates with strata property management and real estate development projects that Paul is involved with.
GreenShareCar has grown to 113 vehicles and 3,500 drivers in Melbourne and Sydney. In addition to private parking at residential apartment buildings, GreenShareCar has negotiated with city government to get access to on-street parking spots that providing residents with highly visible and easily accessible transportation options.
GreenShareCar is piloting a corporate carsharing solution to business and government clients that can reduce the cost of owned/leased fleets by using shared cars. GreenShareCar has developed scalable operational systems and is poised for growth in markets across Australia.
