Nowadays, fast delivery is one of the unique selling points online stores use to try and compete with each other. But it’s not easy, as major ecommerce companies such as?Amazon?have already set the bar very high.
But Lithuanian logistics startup Ziticity wants to offer last-mile on-demand delivery to meet the small ecommerce shops’ demand for fast delivery. The Vilnius-based company has just raised €315,000, after it already got a €50,000 euros investment from the Latvian Business Angels Netwerk in February.
Ziticity offers an online platform that connects online stores with private couriers. Anyone can sign up to become a ‘Zitter’ and deliver packages, documents, and other items from pick-up points to customers. Currently, the service is only available in Vilnius and Tallinn, where it achieves an average delivery time of 42 minutes. The startup is planning collaborations with supermarkets and expansion to other cities.
