Trouble brewing @ Blinkit
Hey, any Blinkit employees here who can tell us how the company is going to handle the crisis at hand?? With so many dark stores closing and 2500+ delivery partners on strike??
Dark stores are not closing. Temporary disruption was there because of the strike.
As of today, most of the stores are back online. The rate card change is supposed to help the honest riders earn more and penalize the ones who were trying to game the system.
I don’t think I can share more details but all in all, it’s good for the riders. The strike is due to a few bad actors who were suspended due to their attempts in abusing the system.
- Says Deepinder Goyal
Lol idk if you’re trolling or for real. These are the facts. We can’t even lie since we’re part of a public company now; you’ll see the data in the quarterly report.
Deepinder might be too busy firing people in food delivery business.
The hyperlocal game is long term game. Even zepto is closing stores in no peak demand areas. As they close stores there will be more riders available to serve order. So basic demand supply, supply goes up price come down. Hence delivery partner fees got decreased but the cost of doing delivery became unsustainable from rider point of view.
Yo, blinkit is back online
What is the unit economics of blinkit?
