DETROIT, Aug. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — After a successful launch, startup company Vehya announced the formation of a select panel of expert advisors who will now help the firm continue down a clear path toward supporting the burgeoning U.S. electric vehicles (EV) industry. Vehya focuses specifically on recruiting, training, and deploying green power workers that install and maintain EV charging stations. Vehya has already partnered with major players in EV, leveraging tailormade solutions and a unique recruiting platform to help propel a record-breaking market – with over 600,000 EVs sold in 2021 alone.
“We’ll be maintaining our consistent growth in North America but, in the following months, we are also expanding to Latin America as well,” said William McCoy, Vehya CEO. “Currently, we already operate in Brazil and we are very excited to provide solutions to other neighboring countries as well. We are working toward becoming the leading player in this market, assuring high service level, efficiency, and sustainability. And that is why we are so happy to have assembled such an esteemed advisory panel to help us get there.”
