Our Journey

The History of Duffy’s Taxi

Serving Winnipeg with trust, reliability, and innovation since 1948.

1948 – Founded

Duffy’s Taxi was established by Russell Duffy, a veteran soldier and visionary entrepreneur who recognized the need for reliable transportation services in Winnipeg.

1948 – Strategic Merger

Duffy’s Taxi merged with United Taxi, founded by John Homenick. The combined company retained the Duffy’s Taxi name, while the iconic chain element in the logo was inspired by United Taxi, symbolizing unity and strength.

Early Years

Starting with a modest fleet, Duffy’s Taxi quickly built a reputation for dependable service. Its bright green taxis became a familiar sight across Winnipeg. Taxi number 268 marked an early milestone in the city's transportation history.

Post-War Growth

Following World War II, the company expanded significantly by increasing its fleet and adopting innovations to enhance service quality and customer experience.

Community Impact

Over the decades, Duffy’s Taxi has become part of Winnipeg’s cultural identity, earning the trust and loyalty of generations of customers through consistent and reliable service.

Evolution of the Industry

Winnipeg’s taxi industry evolved from horse-drawn carriages in the late 1800s to motorized taxis in the early 1900s, transforming urban mobility and setting the foundation for modern services.

Technology & Innovation

From radio dispatch systems in the mid-20th century to modern mobile apps and online booking, Duffy’s Taxi has continuously adapted to meet changing customer expectations.

Today

Today, Duffy’s Taxi continues to lead with innovation, offering app-based bookings, wheelchair-accessible vehicles, and reliable 24/7 service while adapting to new transportation trends.
