AUSTIN, Texas, June 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Fetii, the Austin-based group rideshare company, announced today that Bandago Van Rentals CEO and Founder Sharky Laguana has become an investor and will serve on its Advisory Board, providing strategic guidance as it continues its rapid growth and expansion. While terms of the deal were not disclosed, Fetii expressed its newfound ability to tap into Bandago's vehicle supply as the rideshare company looks to meet its increasing demand.

With Sharky's addition, our vehicle acquisition strategy benefits tremendously," said Matthew Iommi, Co-Founder, and Co-CEO of Fetii.
