SAN CARLOS, Calif. – WHILL has expanded its operations in North America, paving the way for the company to exceed its first-quarter goals. In Q1 of 2024, Scootaround powered by WHILL, the company’s rental operations, saw a 13% increase in cruise rentals compared to the previous year and an 81% increase compared to pre-pandemic levels in 2019. The company also enhanced its rental services in Miami and Galveston, Texas, by installing walk-up terminals. This summer, it plans further expansions, including in New York City. “WHILL started as a small idea and grew into a global business helping people daily,” said Satoshi Sugie, founder and CEO. “I am honored to work alongside the leadership team and all the WHILL employees, who dedicate themselves to the brand and, even more importantly, to WHILL’s mission of providing personal mobility solutions that can be used comfortably whenever needed.” Several accomplished leaders have also recently joined the WHILL team: Tres Izzard, president of WHILL Mobility Services; Carl Crabill, senior vice president, WHILL Business Development, Mobility Sales; Marie Onga, vice president of WHILL Customer Experience Group; Christine Addeo, vice president of WHILL Marketing; and Shane Bogni, vice president, WHILL Business Development, Mobility Services.
