Building on the established Gophr same-day courier delivery solution and a UK wide network of couriers, the project seeks to address the following market challenges which have been notably magnified following the COVID-19 pandemic:-Independent food-retailers and restaurants failing to match the growth seen by larger operators eg Supermarkets-Reduction in high-street footfall due to ongoing individuals' concerns to minimise exposure alongside a much-accelerated wholesale learnt change in the way consumers now shop-Reduction in on-demand taxi services (Uber reporting a 70% reduction in demand)Gophr seek to address these challenges through the development of online toolkit that will enable independent retailers from Grocers and café's to butchers and chemists to better exploit home delivery services -- facilitated through Gophrs courier network of \>9K registered drivers with access to a further 10K strong network of taxi-drivers.Using the solution, retailers will be able create a simple online account (to advertise their products) which will be linked to Gophrs existing booking platform to enable buyers to schedule same day delivery. Whilst other attempts have been made to deliver a similar model they are limited to select restaurants with more local initiatives prohibited by delivery costs. Next to a nationwide delivery network, in contrast, Gophrs established platform offers a level of automation in same-day delivery not currently available through any other solution from the scheduling of deliveries to route optimization, merging jobs at point-of-pick up and real time tracking -- all factors that enable a lower cost delivery model to be delivered.Conceived as a solution to increase the competitiveness of independent retailers' development has been accelerated in response to COVID-19 and could play a key role in future economic recovery -- targeting two sectors which have been hit hardest by the pandemic -- small retail sector and taxi/private-hire industry.

建立在已建立的Gopr当日快递解决方案和英国范围内的快递网络的基础上，该项目旨在应对以下市场挑战，这些挑战在新冠肺炎疫情爆发后被显著放大：-独立食品零售商和餐馆未能赶上较大运营商(如超市)的增长-由于个人不断关注将风险降至最低，商业街客流量减少，同时批发了解到消费者现在购物方式的加速变化--按需出租车服务的减少(优步报告需求减少了70%)Gopr寻求通过开发在线工具包来应对这些挑战，使从杂货商和咖啡馆的S到肉店和药店的独立零售商能够更好地利用送货上门服务--通过Gopars的快递网络；使用该解决方案，零售商将能够创建一个简单的在线账户(为他们的产品做广告)，该账户将链接到Gophr现有的预订平台，使买家能够安排当天的送货时间。虽然也有其他尝试提供类似的模式，但它们仅限于选择那些因送货成本而禁止更多本地化举措的餐厅。相比之下，在全国范围内的配送网络旁边，Gopars建立的平台提供了从配送调度到路线优化、在提货点合并工作和实时跟踪等任何其他解决方案目前无法提供的当天配送自动化水平-所有这些因素都使更低成本的配送模式得以实现。作为提高独立零售商竞争力的解决方案，新冠肺炎加快了其发展，并可能在未来的经济复苏中发挥关键作用-瞄准受疫情打击最严重的两个行业-小型零售行业和出租车/私人出租汽车行业。
