After more than 30 years in operation, Kiama Cabs will end its services on 28 May after the company failed to find a buyer.

Owner Gavin McClure took to Facebook to announce the company’s closure, saying that no-one had taken up the opportunity to buy Kiama Cabs following its decision to sell the business due to ongoing health concerns.

“It’s been a very tough decision to make, but 30-plus years is a long time,” McClure wrote on Facebook. 

“Unfortunately, it’s not the type of business that we can close for 3 months while we attend to our health issues and then come back and recommence.”

Thankfully for local veterans and war widows, Kiama Cabs will continue running its health-related transport service, and pre-booked group transport can still be arranged.

Kiama Cabs will continue looking for potential suitors to acquire the business, and interested parties can reach out to [email protected] for further information.

“We are disappointed that no-one has taken up the opportunity to take over and continue to operate a local taxi service despite many months of advertising the business for sale and us personally reaching out to as many possible interested parties as we could think of,” said McClure.

Kiama Cabs declined to comment.
