The Challenge
Optimizing consumer, logistics & restaurant operations
Deliveroo came to the table with unique, multifaceted operations challenges for its three markets: consumer, logistics and restaurant/grocery.
At the consumer-level, Deliveroo was interested in learning where they should expand their restaurant offering, understanding how to conduct true geographic segmentation and exploring how to create super granular marketing campaigns for various neighborhoods.
On the logistics side, Deliveroo was interested in optimizing routes to user’s addresses and discovering a method to stack orders more efficiently.
For their restaurant/grocery market, Deliveroo was interested in exploring site selection for new Hop / Editions locations and how they could help their clients improve their availability throughout their respective countries. They were also interested in understanding how user selection and experience would change based on their delivery radius.
