Last Mile Delivery Case Study: Oddbox

ODDBOX, food-waste-fighting fruit & veg box delivery scheme, is responsible for rescuing over 6,440 tonnes of surplus fruit and vegetables directly from farms since 2016. Products are collected, checked, and packaged up ready for delivery to customer homes across London and the Southeast of England. Having just celebrated it is one millionth box delivery, and with ambitious growth plans, the ODDBOX team realised they needed support from a last mile delivery management and ePOD system partner to help optimise and manage customer deliveries.
