NEW YORK, Aug. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Safr, the leading ridesharing service dedicated to the safety and empowerment of women, has partnered with businessmen, NFL legends, and Tyler, Texas natives Earl Campbell and Gary Baxter to lead expansion of the Safr brand and service in Texas. Sal Khokhar, Chief Marketing Officer of Safr, made the announcement.
"Safr is proud to partner with prominent businessmen and American football legends Earl Campbell and Gary Baxter to help us grow our safer, more secure rideshare concept across the nation and the world," stated Mr. Khokhar. "With the rideshare industry poised to reach $218 billion by 2025, Safr's philosophy is to create a safer, more reliable service for people in the U.S. and around the world. Safr is ideally positioned to service the growing demand."
Nicknamed the "Tyler Rose," Earl Campbell is a Heisman Trophy winner and NFL Hall of Famer former running back, having played football for the Houston Oilers and New Orleans Saints for eight years. Gary Wayne Baxter is a former NFL standout cornerback for the Baltimore Ravens and the Cleveland Browns for eight years. Today, the business partners are prominent investors in the "Texas Triangle"—Dallas, Houston and San Antonio—and have multiple high-profile projects and an aggressive investment model.
"Safr's brand is perfectly aligned with our investment criterion as well as our vision for a better, safer world for women, the women in our families, and all people," stated Mr. Campbell. "A recent study showed that 70% of the rideshare market is still untapped, including just 29% of the potential market in the U.S. As an investment, Safr offers great value through its growth model, prioritizing people and safety above all else. The rideshare industry is growing quickly; women and all people deserve better than what is currently out there."
