How does 30-minute delivery and over 40,000 local product choices, sound?

Spot a rider on Singapore’s roads decked out in distinct colours and we’re conditioned to recognise a food delivery brand. If this pandemic has taught us anything about the food delivery business, it’s that these days, it’s a service that we simply cannot live without.

Let’s take a cue from foodpanda, where their marketplace for shops boasts over 4,000 different merchants where you can pick anything you wish to purchase with only a few clicks of a button. Categories range from health & beauty, to electronics, to convenience, and so much more—you’ll never have to leave your home to shop. There are even crowd-favourite brands such as Watsons, 7-Eleven, Wine Connection, Marks & Spencer, and The Body Shop to truly cater to every whim and fancy.

But now, foodpanda has stepped up its game, with a new initiative launched in July 2021, called panda plaza, which supports our local vendors by partnering with them to be a part of foodpanda shops. It serves as a new “category” within the existing shops in which you may access by clicking on “Shops” on the home screen and then clicking on the tile that says “panda plaza” on the top carousel.

In addition to the existing plethora of items you can already purchase in the marketplace, panda plaza offers groceries, daily essentials, as well as cooking and household items which span across a library of more than 40,000 products sold by 16 local retailers. That’s not even the best part; one of panda plaza’s unique features is its on-demand delivery—including meat, fruits, and fresh produce—where your purchase can arrive at your doorstep in as fast as 30 minutes.

I’m just imagining how handy this will be when I’m in the midst of cooking and realise I’ve run out of ingredients! Also, given that the retailers in panda plaza are local, they also are able to offer local ingredients or items that may not be readily available at mainstream supermarkets. It’s a win-win for everyone.
