Blacklane expands services into Kenya and Tunisia

Global chauffeur company Blacklane has strengthened its Africa presence with the launch of services in Kenya and Tunisia.

 

In Nairobi, the company will offer its Business and Van classes with a focus on airport transfers and chauffeurs by the hour.

 

The move marks Blacklane’s entry into East Africa and is designed to meet the needs of the city’s “thriving corporate, diplomatic and tourism sectors”.

 

In Tunis, the brand will introduce First, Business and Van options, including longer city-to-city journeys.

 

The expansion reflects Tunis’s “growing role” as a regional hub for both business and leisure travel.

 

The launch marks a “key step” in Blacklane’s continued international growth and follows “a record-breaking year” for the company, which operates in more than 50 countries.

 

René van Olst, chief executive for EMEA & APAC, said: “2025 has been a record-breaking year of growth for Blacklane. Far more than adding dots to the map, we partner with local professional chauffeurs to connect them to international travellers booking via a trusted global brand.

 

“Our expansion into Tunis and Nairobi is just the start of our roll-out across this rapidly evolving continent.”
