GoLemon, the grocery delivery startup founded by four ex-Paystack staff members, will begin testing a next-day delivery next week, sources familiar with the matter told TechCabal. Currently, GoLemons earliest delivery time is two days after an order is made.
Reducing delivery time by over 40 could help the company make more inroads in a market accustomed to same-day delivery from competitors like Mano, Price Pally, My FoodAngels, and Chowdeck.
GoLemon confirmed it will now run round-the-clock operations to achieve faster delivery times.
Our operations now include overnight shopping what we call picking and packing, processing, early morning quality checks, and real-time inventory management, GoLemon co-founder Abdulrahman Jogbojogbo told TechCabal.
According to a person familiar with the companys operations, the tech team is developing a dashboard that will improve order tracking and communication within the team. This is an improvement over the Slack bots it previously used. The team will now work in shifts, improving overall efficiency.
