Union Cab is a worker cooperative; each worker shares a vested interest as a member owner. Our Mission: “To create living wage jobs in a safe, humane, & democratic environment while providing quality transportation services.”
History
In January of 1979, ex-Checker cab workers who were on strike, resolved to create a worker owned taxi company. On October 29, 1979, Union Cab of Madison Cooperative, Inc. opened for business with eleven new cabs. We’ve grown, changed, and thrived ever since.
