<\/p>\nA new grocery service is in town. Officially launched yesterday (23\/Jul), I think honestbee is a grocery delivery service with a difference. I had the opportunity to talk to co-founder, Jonathan, to understand more about the processes and back-end operation.<\/p>\n

I think I will leave the details for a follow up post. To summarize the honestbee services, I can only say that it is unlike other grocery services. For honestbee, they don’t keep stock. There will be a personal shopper to shop for the groceries that you ordered in places like Cold Storage (one of their partners). And if there are offers on that day, you will also benefit from it. They may even call you to verify some items if there are options to be made. This is like a concierge service that you will not find in other grocery services (at the moment).<\/p>\n
