How Delivery management platform helped chef prepared, authentic food delivery company Hungry and enable them to scale and optimize their business.

Hungry covers the majority of the Northern Virginia area, all of DC and parts of Maryland. Their wide delivery radius allows them to achieve their vision of delivering chef-prepared, authentic meals to foodies everywhere. The key players at Hungry are their professional chefs and flawless logistics, which enable Hungry to connect with local customers, growing the community of people who are passionate about food.

Prior to implementing the delivery management platform, it was becoming difficult for Hungry to coordinate with their drivers. The company’s challenge was to find a logistics solution that could optimize routes, dispatch drivers, and allow an aerial view of the whole operation.

According to Nima Ghafari, Director of Logistics at Hungry, “Delivery management platform has made all of our drivers’ and dispatchers’ lives easier by allowing us to have a seamless communication platform. We’ve been able to plan for expansion, make our deliveries on time, and streamline operations.”

Hungry is now also able to see a more transparent view of their operations, allowing them to make accurate decisions with regards to logistics, in order to improve their customer overall delivery time.
