The problem
Buying foodstuff means going to the market, haggling, being charged the stranger price, carrying heavy loads in traffic, and losing half a Saturday.
Delivery services that exist are priced per item with unpredictable totals and frequently substitute or shortweigh.
The household has no way to plan a food budget because the price of everything changes with who is asking.
Who it is for
Working households
Dual-income families and young professionals in Accra and Kumasi who currently lose a Saturday morning to the market.
Small restaurants and chop bars
Kitchens buying weekly who want weekday delivery and invoicing.
