The company has no issues with local officials, considering that every program on the platform benefits the community at large. In the COVID-19 pandemic, Facedrive Healthcare offers discounted rides for healthcare workers. Specialized vehicles are available for contactless delivery of essential over-the-counter medicines and medical supplies.   

Explosive growth is for real

Facedrive sees a long runway for growth. The company will pursue expansion plans in the U.S. and European markets.

The profit potentials from green stocks are enormous.
