DESCRIPTION |
With the sharing economy, the process of ordering food & goods from a website or app and having them home-delivered has increased in number and replaced the phone order. Online marketplaces for ordering and delivery (delivery startups) started to grow, and use on-call workers driving their own vehicles (rather than employees driving company vehicles) to make deliveries of groceries, food, and general retail items to their customers. Drivers typically sign up and get work assignments using a smartphone app. Major delivery startups are: DoorDash and Grubhub (US), Deliveroo (UK), iFood (Brazil), Delivery Hero and Foodpanda (Germany), Swiggy and Dunzo (India) |
