Delivery platform unicorn Glovo chooses StrongPoint as preferred supplier for grocery picking solutions

2.2.2021 10:09:26 CET | StrongPoint | Inside information

(Oslo, Norway, February 2, 2020) StrongPoint today announced that the on-demand

delivery platform unicorn Glovo has chosen StrongPoint as its preferred partner

for grocery picking technology.

As Europe's fastest-growing delivery company, Glovo has an estimated valuation

of over USD 1 billion making it a technology 'unicorn'. The company is present

in 22 countries around the world. Glovo provides on-demand groceries via its

retail grocery partners which include Walmart, Carrefour and Spar, and saw

unprecedented levels of growth due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The terms of the partner licence agreement allow Glovo to be the first to use

StrongPoint's SAAS cloud-based third generation picking technology.

StrongPoint's technology is to be integrated into Glovo's logistics platform and

used by grocery retailers to process online orders.

The first project of the partnership will be deploying the technology to a

leading grocery chain in Europe and is expected to start in Q1 2021. The intent

is to deploy StrongPoint's third-generation grocery picking technology to other

countries where Glovo is partnering with local and international grocery

retailers and for StrongPoint to earn recurring revenue through those channels.

"The on-demand economy has changed rapidly in 2020 with delivery providers

around the world pivoting to offer grocery deliveries due to increased demand

following the pandemic. Glovo's selection of StrongPoint as its picking

technology partner underlines the vast global potential for our scalable grocery

picking solution," said Jacob Tveraabak, CEO of StrongPoint.

"Our customers expect us to be effective and efficient, delivering orders with

speed and accuracy. StrongPoint has a proven track record of supplying retailers

and grocery stores with highly efficient picking solutions that make fulfilling

online orders faster. Every day we are onboarding more grocery store partners

and we want to provide them with the easiest way to pick and pack the groceries

orders so we can deliver it to the customer as quickly as possible," said Daniel

Alonso, Vice President of Q-Commerce at Glovo.
