KingKabs will also take up the opportunity of race sponsorship and run a number of competitions, in conjunction with the racecourse, on social media platforms.

Karen Long, Regional General Manager at CityFleet Networks, said:

“We are proud to partner with such an iconic venue as Chester Racecourse, which attracts thousands of visitors to the city for events all year round. As the number one taxi provider in the area, KingKabs welcomes the opportunity to promote its services and further support the transportation requirements of all those getting to and from the racecourse, enhancing the door-to-door experience with our long-established, professional, and customer-focused taxi service.”
