Senmiao Technology Limited, a financing and servicing company focusing on the online ride-hailing industry in China as well as an operator of its own online ride-hailing platform, announced the launch of its proprietary online ride-hailing platform for drivers in Harbin, the capital of Heilongjiang Province.
Senmiao launched its online ride-hailing platform in Harbin on June 30, 2022. With the addition of Harbin, Senmiao’s platform is now available in 21 cities across China, including six cities in Sichuan Province and 15 major cities in other provinces in China.
With a population of approximately 9.9 million, Harbin is the political, economic and cultural center in Northeast China and also a mega city coming first in the area of land under jurisdiction and coming third in registered population among the provincial cities in China. Harbin possesses rich historical, cultural and tourism resources, and is also known as the “Ice City” of China. Harbin is an international comprehensive transportation hub, an important industrial manufacturing base, and a central city for border development.
Xi Wen, Senmiao’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased to continue strengthening our partnership with Gaode Map (AutoNavi Software Co., Ltd.) with the launch of our platform in Harbin, marking the eighth provincial city that Senmiao serves in China. Following our launch in Shenyang, this presents the growing opportunities for us to expand our business in Northeast China, and we look forward to providing quality online ride-hailing services to the people in Harbin. We expect to continue to launch our platform in other major cities with growth potential, which we anticipate will help improve cash flow in the coming quarters.”
