Uber Eats has partnered with popular greengrocery chain Zucchini in Nairobi, to have their grocery offerings delivered via the app. Uber Eats launched its grocery delivery service last year in response to the COVID-19 lockdown, enabling Kenyans to get essential products like groceries delivered to their households, and to keep couriers earning.
“Whether it’s getting a ride or getting groceries and food delivered, we want Uber to be the operating system for your everyday life. As we celebrate our third anniversary in Nairobi, we are excited to welcome Zucchini to the Uber Eats platform. We have seen a positive response to our essentials offerings via the app, and this partnership will allow us to scale this offering to ensure consumers have more selection at the tap of a button,” says Nadeem Anjarwalla, General Manager for Uber Eats in Kenya.
“In today’s retail market, convenience is everything for the consumer and there is nothing more convenient than getting your shopping delivered to your doorstep. At Zucchini, we are actively trying to increase our online footprint to be able to reach a broader customer base. This partnership with UberEats will definitely take us towards that objective,” said Rajiv Jandu, Head of Procurement, Zucchini GreenGrocers.
