Alexandra Taxi Association was established in 1948 to harness the collective strength and deliver collective benefits for taxi owners in the Alexandra area. The association was formed to present a unified and coordinated approach in representing taxi owners, the association represents approximately 1200 taxi owners in the area.

The Taxi industry carries 75% of Johannesburg’s economically active population, thousands of which live in and around Alexandra. The association also serves as a catalyst for the economic transformation of the city creating a more networked and accessibility city and this benefits citizens, businesses and makes the metro more attractive to investors.

Alexandra Taxi Association aims to PROTECT, SECURE and PROMOTE members of the association and commuters alike.
The association also aims to transition the taxi industry from the informal sector into a formal, regulated and sustainable business sector.

Alexandra Taxi Association represents the industry’s interests and acts as an enabling organisation:

• Ensuring that the taxi industry is equipped to participate effectively in Gauteng’s economy and deliver SAFE, ACCESSIBLE and AFFORDABLE public transport to its customers.
• Securing employment of skilled people from the industry within the association, and facilitating skills development and training opportunities where required.

Our vision is to ensure full and effective participation of the taxi industry in the Gauteng transport system that serves the needs of the people of Alexandra.
