Instant Delivery
What is instant delivery?
Instant delivery refers to the delivery of groceries or convenience items to consumers in under 30 minutes (in some cases, in under 10 minutes). Instant-delivery services typically operate through “dark” neighborhood micro-warehouses or retail locations with storefronts. Orders can be picked in a few minutes and handed to waiting couriers, who serve a limited radius. Instant-delivery services often employ full-time couriers rather than gig workers.
