Pineapple Express Delivery - Growth in Delivery Services: COVID-19 and Beyond
Aspiring to be the ‘Amazon' of regulated product deliveries, Pineapple Express Delivery is based in Burlington, Ontario, providing B2C and B2B delivery options for controlled substances and regulated products deliveries (cannabis, alcohol and prescription products). PED is currently one of the premiere, most utilized delivery services in Ontario, and will continue to maintain its high standards of security and compliance for same day and next day parcels, even as it grows to meet provincial need.
PED benefits from a management team with over 10 years of experience offering same-day delivery services in multiple industries across Canada. Its founder, Randy Rolph, founded Menu Express delivery in Quebec in 2010, which was subsequently purchased by Just Eat in 2014. Mr. Rolph then founded Delivery Direct in 2015, becoming the national leader in 60 min delivery. The proprietary logistics software behind Just Eat and Delivery Direct brings the most reliable same-day, last mile delivery services for the controlled substances and regulated market across Canada.
The COVID-19 pandemic has forever changed shopping behaviours. With the unfortunate outbreak of COVID-19 and the cannabis sector deemed an ‘essential' service, there has been a surge in demand for delivery with more and more people staying indoors and practicing social distancing. Cannabis patients and consumers have embraced delivery to safely access regulated products, and PED is experiencing increased demand for its services. In response to this surge in volume, PED has increased the number of delivery drivers to over 200 in 2020.
An increase in deliveries during a health crisis also equates to an increase in routine and preventative measures. As such, PED has implemented strict COVID-19 practices and procedures in its offices, warehouses, and in delivery driver procedures, including equipping all driver vehicles with a 360º security camera. PED ensures that its staff has the necessary tools to abide by Health Canada and provincial health guidelines, including face coverings, gloves, hand sanitizer, and disinfectants.
Rosy Mondin, CEO of World Class Extractions stated, "The COVID-19 pandemic has created an urgent demand for home delivery like we've never seen before and it's unlikely that Canadians will ever return to their old shopping habits. People shop online because of convenience - and online shopping and delivery of legal cannabis is no different. E-commerce is thriving, and according to a recent Paypal study, online shopping increased by 53% as more people self-isolated and worked from home, and over 45% of consumers also used home delivery[1]". Ms. Mondin continued, "Given the history of cannabis legalization, there still exists a lingering stigma of physically visiting retail cannabis stores for many new consumers. After months of lockdown and social distancing pushing more patients and consumers online, Canadians have come to value the convenience of a legal, proven and reliable delivery solution for cannabis and other regulated products, a trend that is likely to stay."
Randy Rolph, Founder & CEO of Pineapple Express Delivery stated, "In 2020, we have seen the public health and economic crises of the COVID-19 pandemic take a terrible toll on many Canadians and Canadian businesses and we are proud to be a platform that so many Canadians have been able to use to during these difficult times. The guiding principles of PED is that patients and consumers should be able to receive their regulated product orders (alcohol, prescription medications and cannabis) as quickly, safely and as easily as they can obtain any other product in Canada. The pandemic is far from over and many of the habits formed during this pandemic will likely stick post-pandemic. PED's widespread network and large delivery fleet provides important, much-needed access to thousands of patients and consumers every day."
“We are excited about the development of the BEAST, the first of its kind in Canada. The Beast is a high efficiency ethanol extraction system which represents the end result of extensive research and development. The Beast has the capability of providing licensed producers the ability to process extraordinary amounts of biomass per day.”
