Improve Delivery Efficiency and Effectiveness
PublicThe DRINKMË-App, founded by Destination Chengdu Technology LLC and launched in 2015, is a wine portal that provides customers with an unparalleled immediate delivery service. The company faced challenges delivering orders in their new market Shanghai due to a larger coverage area and higher delivery costs.

A mixed-transportation delivery approach was recommended.
