Ever-faster innovation and the creative application of technology to create new solutions to age-old issues are becoming more and more interesting.
As a leading provider of services answering supply chain organisations’ need for warehousing and pallet space, Bis Henderson Space keep up to date with some of the latest and most interesting delivery service start-ups from across the world.
Boxc
Boxc provides US buyers with the benefit of cheap 3-5 day international shipping and can also accept returns at a US address. This is made possible by aggregating shipments and choosing the optimal carrier for each leg of a shipment’s journey.
Postmates
This crowd based local delivery app is another US firm that enables users of its services to have their groceries delivered by a real person. The company takes pride in being able to deliver “the best of your city… in minutes” on a 24/7 basis, with services available in areas ranging from Arizona and Northern and Southern California to Washington and Wisconsin.
DoorDash
DoorDash is a local, on-demand FedEx service in the San Francisco Bay area, and started with the delivery of restaurant food, including areas where most restaurants didn’t deliver. The company has gone on to provide millions of deliveries in more than 250 cities, and continues to have ambitious expansion plans to “bring our last-mile logistics infrastructure to every corner of the world.”
Deliv
This is another on-demand US delivery service along the lines of Postmates and Zipments, and brings together retailers, shoppers and drivers while providing same-day delivery of online orders for small businesses, individuals, enterprise and retail chains alike.
Rickshaw
San Francisco businesses can take advantage of this local delivery solution that gives them their ‘own’ branded couriers at an affordable price, from Rickshaw’s flexible delivery fleet. It’s easy for users to send their delivery requests through a simple web form and in response, items can be delivered ranging from office snacks and meal subscriptions to gifts, laundry and other packages.
