foodpanda is promising to drastically reduce delivery time in Singapore to 30 minutes. This, it said, will be achieved by its own fleet of over 500 couriers, along with advanced delivery technology.

“foodpanda’s service is all about delivering the most popular dishes around Singapore from kitchen to doorstep as quickly as possible. Having our own foodpanda fleet of riders means our service is now more consistent and speedier than ever, ensuring food consistently arrives on time,” said Jakob Angele, CEO for foodpanda Singapore.

Using proprietary technology with advanced algorithm, delivery routes of riders are intelligently optimized.

Recently, it signed partnerships with new healthy and popular restaurants to offer an even wider choice of healthy options at home and in the office. New partner
restaurants include Sushi Burrito, District 10, The Assembly Ground and Nandos.

foodpanda also exclusively offers delivery of hearty soups, stews, salads and sandwiches from The Soup Spoon.

Anna Lim, Executive Director of The Soup Spoon Pte Ltd, says foodpanda’s fleet has allowed them to focus on more pressing elements such as service and the quality of food.

“With foodpanda, we don’t have to dispatch our own staff or hire a third party delivery company anymore, which saves us an incredible amount of time,” she said. “We are also very pleased that each driver now has a receipt printer allowing them to have a copy of the bill – a common customer request.”
