Grab in Partnership with AGC
On 13th April 2021, Grab made a deal with Altimeter Growth Corp. to go public in the United States. It was believed to be the largest-ever U.S. stock offering by a Southeast Asian firm. As consumer spending increases, so do the revenue prospects for Grab’s merchant and driver-partners, enticing them to join the ecosystem. Grab thinks that with its super app approach, it is well-positioned to fulfill the requirements of customers, retailers, and drivers across Southeast Asia.
Through a single app, it provides an ecosystem of complementary services that serve high-frequency, everyday requirements. This produces a flywheel effect that propels expansion while decreasing service costs. The more services available, the more options customers have, and hence the higher the value of the Grab super app. In fact, the number of Grab users who utilize two or more services has increased by fivefold in the previous two years.
