Deliv buys NYC same-day delivery company
Crowdsourced, last mile delivery company Deliv has acquired Zipments, a same-day delivery specialist based in New York City. Deliv said that the move will give it “a particularly strong foothold and delivery density in New York City”, which is one the key same-day delivery markets in the US.
Zipments services brands such as DVF, Ted Baker, and Trina Turk, on-demand companies such as Casper, Handy, and Plated, local merchants such as B&H, Murray’s Cheese and Epicerie Boulud, as well as large corporate clients who need to send packages across town.
“Zipments has established itself as the leader of same-day delivery in New York City, and the team has done a magnificent job building up its profitable business in this prime and complex market,” said Daphne Carmeli, founder and CEO of Deliv.
“When you consider that one of the keys to our business is route density, joining forces enhances operational efficiencies. We also share a similar philosophy, similar business model, and similar clients, so Zipments is a great match for us on multiple levels.”
Garrick Pohl, founder and CEO of Zipments, added: “Deliv is the de facto leader in same-day delivery for omni-channel retailers and has one of the largest same-day delivery footprints in the nation. We’re thrilled to join such a great team to further disrupt last mile logistics in retail.”
