Last-mile delivery and return logistics platform Veho is continuing its rapid expansion, announcing on Tuesday that it has expanded to two new Midwest cities with a third coming before the end of the year.
“As we continue to scale our premium customer experience across the U.S., doubling down on our growing Midwest customers and partners was a natural next step. We continue to focus on expanding our footprint in areas where our clients see the most value and are looking forward to bringing a new, customer-first delivery experience to the Midwest,” said Itamar Zur, co-founder and CEO.
Next-day e-commerce
Veho leverages in-market warehouse locations and a dynamic marketplace to match demand for e-commerce deliveries with last-mile driver partners. Like other gig-based last-mile delivery companies, Veho uses a crowdsourced driver network. Unlike other networks, though, the company creates routes of deliveries that last between two and six hours, ensuring the drivers have a steady amount of work and consistent pay for the hours they choose to work.
More about Veho
In most cases, the items can be delivered by the next day. Veho offers a returns service.
Veho said the new locations will add over 100 full-time employees by the end of 2023 as operations scale. The company added that “thousands of independent driver-partners are already using the Veho app.”
Veho facilitates next-day delivery from a brand’s distribution center all the way to customers’ doors via its technology platform and network of independent drivers. Veho’s Midwest market will have over 300,000 square feet of warehousing space after the opening of the Cleveland hub.
“We couldn’t be more excited about our Midwest expansion. In addition to bringing Veho’s best-in-class customer experience to the region, our Midwest facilities will provide excellent full-time jobs, as well as convenient and flexible work opportunities for driver-partners,” said Matt Neururer, general manager for Veho Midwest.
