The MEC for Transport in the Eastern Cape, Honorable T Marawu and the President of South African National Taxi Council (SANTACO) Mr AJ Mthembu has the honour to invite you to the proof of concept for the SANTACO airline. The entry of the taxi industry into the aviation space signals new strides by the industry to decisively contribute to the broad transformation agenda of public transport offering to millions of commuters. The taxi industry is currently the largest transporter of commuters at over 65%, moving over 15 million commuters on a daily basis, contributing immensely to the economic activities of the country.
This is another step towards effective empowerment of the industry and the provision of access and affordable air travel to all South Africans. Your presence therefore will bear testimony to this historic moment that will mark a shift in the perceptions of ordinary South Africans on their ability to participate within the aviation space and provide them with wings to fly with pride!
