Foodpanda launches logistics service ‘pandago’

Online food and grocery delivery platform foodpanda has recently introduced a new logistics service "pandago". 

The on-demand service will enable businesses, including restaurants, chain stores, consumer goods companies, f-commerce platforms and home chefs or catering services to deliver packages to their customers quickly, said a press release.

Customers can sign up for pandago at foodpanda's official Facebook page. They will not have to bear any commission for using the service.

"Now customers don't want to wait for 2-3 days after placing their orders. For this, we would like to expand that network beyond food and groceries, and make it accessible to businesses of all sizes," said Zubair Siddiky, co-founder and managing director of foodpanda Bangladesh.

Merchants can also use the service on a pay-per-use basis. The delivery fee is calculated based on travel distance on top of a base charge of Tk 60. The fee differs from city to city. There is also a real time tracking system for which customers can track their parcel live through a link.
