In defence of quick commerce
Jack Green, co-founder of bodo, a sustainable same-day delivery service used by UK e-commerce brands, recently took to social media to defend the quick commerce space.
In a LinkedIn post, he said: “Sometimes brands say to me: are you sure we NEED same day delivery? No, of course you don’t.”
“But I don’t NEED to order McDonald’s at 2am on a Saturday night. And I love Uber Eats for it. I don’t NEED that little button that skips the title scene when I’m binge watching At Home With The Furys. And I love Netflix for it.”
He added: “We value and adore the brands that invest in exceptional customer experience. And we come back for more. Sometimes we even get the mozzarella sticks and dip them in the spicy sauce. While bingeing Netflix. And we love ourselves for it.”
