It's odd that they have their own drivers. Why hasn't someone (uber) commoditized moving things via car within a city on no notice? I'm surprised at least that there's no app integrating various services that require drivers. If you can drive people, can't you drive a pizza?
- chockablock 12y agoSprig drivers carry a supply of the evenings 3 hot meal options (in a heater?) and then are dynamically routed based on incoming orders (or at least this is what I assume is happening based on the regular sub-10 min delivery times to my neighborhood far from downtown.) This seems harder to Uber-ize than point-to-point trips: your drivers would need special equipment to keep the food hot, and would need to be available for an extended period of deliveries.
