Instant apéritif service delivers in 45 minutes

L'appero is an on-demand apéritif delivery service in Paris that promises customers a wait of no more than 45 minutes.

Startups such as Postmates have aimed to provide quicker local delivery by taking advantage of idle couriers. Based in Paris only, L’appero is an on-demand apéritif delivery service that promises customers a wait of no more than 45 minutes.

Users can download the L’appero app from both the App Store and Google Play, which enables them to select the items they want delivered. L’appero currently offers a choice of two boxes. La Box is suitable for two to four people and includes cured ham, Ossau-Iraty cheese, tapenades, olives, bread and a bottle of wine or water for EUR 30. La Box Moustache on the other hand is for one to two people and includes a bottle of beer, chips and Mimolette cheese for EUR 15. The customer’s location is tracked via GPS and payments are made through their smartphone. L’appero uses bicycle couriers to quickly get the boxes to customers, wherever they are, within 45 minutes.

L’appero’s success is based on the localized nature of its service, enabling it to deliver goods across the city in a convenient timeframe for customers. Are there other unusual takeaway options that could be given this kind of treatment?
