Amazon raised consumer expectations to get items same-day. Soon it will be 1-hour. However, in Europe alone, 80% of e-commerce cannot offer same-day delivery. Every day businesses are losing revenue as 1 out of 4 customers abandons a shopping cart if same-day delivery is not available. ZITICITY found a scalable way to crowd-source delivery fleets in every major European city. The best part, businesses of any size can use these fleets and our technology to deliver packages in 42 minutes on average. 42 minutes! That is faster than Amazon Prime. ZITICITY is becoming the new standard for urban same-day and faster deliveries. Client profiles: food delivery companies, e-shops, grocery chains, traditional courier companies, pharmacies. Follow us as we become your favourite delivery company!
