A free tool to plan deliveries during the Covid-19 pandemic (opens in new tab)

We self isolated really early due to a possible COVID scare, so for months now we’ve been using a local green grocer who has always done free delivery over $40. Early on it was phone orders only, payment details read out over the phone. After a while they moved to email. Now I’ve noticed a Shopify instance. It’s been fascinating watching the digital transformation step by step.

Problem is its still a black box as to when it’s coming. I emailed Friday morning and they might do a delivery run around 12pm, only they didn’t. Nor Saturday. Usually the only warning I get is a push notification my card has been charged and some time in the next 15min-3 hours it might show up.

This isn’t about Uber Eats or Deliveroo, this is about tiny operations in hyper local environments. COVID has brought a lot of companies kicking and screaming into the digital age, so I hope apps like these capitalise and stick around. Impeccable timing!

We at https://www.questtag.com/ offer a one stop solution for people to start their own delivery services. Particularly during this pandemic we are trying to help restaurants self-deliver. So if you know a restaurant owner that can utilize our software please mention about us.

Here is the Nokia maps solution right? Is popular with some people I know

Oh I thought it's going to be about your birth plan

So we can use this to build a web app for the local farmers to set up a delivery service? I live in New York. USA.

The problem is discovery, since every consumer is already using apps like Uber eats.
