PHOENIX — A new digital cartop advertising platform is now available in the Phoenix area, allowing locally-owned businesses to expand their customer base.

Uber (NYSE: UBER) on Wednesday launched a self-service platform on more than 3,500 vehicles in seven markets nationwide — including the Valley — that allows small- and medium-sized businesses to create flexible mobile advertising campaigns.

“Phoenix is a massive market, both from a population and advertising demand standpoint,” Brett Baker, general manager of Uber Cartops, said. “It’s also just a really fantastic Uber market.”
