Taxis near Georgis Church of Arada

1937

ETHIOPIA’S FIRST TAXI COMPANY Around 1937, about a year and half through the second invasion of Ethiopia by Italy, a taxi company was operating by an Italian businessman named Sighnore Fernondo. The company opened its doors for service around Georgis Church of Arada as seen in the image. At the time, the taxis were dark brown and served only European residents around the city. Ethiopians were not allowed to ride them unless they were bandas or servitore አገልጋይ.
