Local rideshare company Uride North Bay is offering free rides for any “non-essential” business owners in North Bay.

"Small businesses need us now more than ever, and we hope that others will find creative ways to help," says Cody Ruberto, Uride Founder and CEO. 

Uride knows while weathering the effects of the latest stay-at-home order, local businesses that have been deemed "non-essential" will have a long road to recovery. The company wants to help and is hoping others will follow suit.

"Any local business owner that is unable to operate due to the stay-at-home order will receive $30 in credits for free rides," from Uride, says Ruberto. "They can use it for a giveaway contest to drum up demand when they are allowed to open, or they can use it themselves for essential rides."

Non-essential businesses, including salons, gyms, retail stores, etc, can email [email protected] to collect their free rides.
