The service was initially launched in April in a few areas in capital Bucharest and will now cover Bucharest, Bacau, Baia Mare, Cluj-Napoca, Constanta, Ploiesti and Drobeta-Turnu Severin. Cora said it extended the product range available for delivery to include fresh and frozen produce, meat, fish, cold cuts and dairy.
“After testing the service in the capital city we are now extending collaboration with foodpanda in all cities where Cora hypermarkets exist. The online segment is increasingly important to our customers, therefore we are increasing capacity for delivery and reducing delivery time,” said Claudia Badea, operational manager of cora.ro.
Foodpanda will deliver Cora orders within the hour for minimum orders of RON50 and maximum weight of 20 kilos.
“We plan to extend the foodpanda fast delivery service beyond food from our partner restaurants and we are now also addressing app users who wish to shop online and have express delivery,” said Andreea Petrisor, managing director at foodpanda Romania.
