History

Gojek was founded by Nadiem Makarim, a native Indonesian who saw a need for a more efficient transportation system in the country. The company started as a call center offering courier and two-wheeled ride-hailing services. In 2015, Gojek launched its app, which quickly gained popularity due to its convenience and wide range of services.

  • GoPay: A digital payment service.
  • GoMart: An online grocery shopping service.
  • GoSend: A courier service.

Expansion

Gojek has expanded its services beyond Indonesia to other countries in Southeast Asia, including Vietnam, Thailand, and Singapore. The company has also made several acquisitions to strengthen its position in the market, such as the acquisition of Airpay, a digital payment platform in Vietnam.

Impact

Gojek has had a significant impact on the economy of Indonesia and other Southeast Asian countries. It has created jobs for millions of people and has helped small businesses grow by providing them with a platform to reach more customers.

Criticism and Controversy
