talabat, the region’s leading platform for everyday deliveries, has officially relaunched the ‘Summer Together’ campaign to assist riders across the region. The campaign comes as part of talabat’s duty of care towards rider safety and well-being, ensuring they are well taken care of while out on deliveries during the summer. Additionally, talabat has introduced newer initiatives sponsored by Al Rayyan Water to support riders, further complementing the overall ‘Summer Together’ campaign.
Summer kits
talabat provides riders with water bottles, making sure that riders remain cool and hydrated at all times. Riders are also provided with bike windshields to minimise glare on the road and prevent their phones from overheating.
Rest stop buses
This year, talabat has launched buses across Qatar, so that riders have access to air-conditioned areas where they can take a break to grab a snack, hydrate or charge their phones whenever needed. Sponsored by Al Rayyan Water, these rest stops are fully stocked with chilled water for riders on the move.
Partner waiting areas
As part of its collaboration with restaurant partners, talabat has encouraged partners like Pearl Juice Bar in Doha Festival City, Kopi Kade, Harvest Coffee, and Clementine Juice at The Pearl to set up air-conditioned waiting areas where riders can rest while picking up deliveries.
Optimised technology
As a tech company at its core, talabat believes in harnessing its technology to support riders on a daily basis. Optimised technology helps riders find the safest and shortest routes while out on deliveries, minimising waiting and traveling time - also allowing them to choose their preferred shifts and take breaks whenever needed. In addition, riders receive regular updates and tips on how to keep safe during the summer, along with bus locations and operating hours, kit pick-up locations and more.
Francisco Miguel De Sousa, managing director of talabat in Qatar said: “We are proud to announce the ‘Summer Together’ initiatives, which are aimed at supporting riders during summer months. With adopting important initiatives like Rest Stops, we continue to strive to enhance the well-being and satisfaction of riders.
We would also like to extend our gratitude to Al Rayyan Water for generously providing water bottles for our riders in our designated rest areas. I encourage our valued customers to acknowledge and support riders by simple gestures like offering water when your order is delivered. Together, we can create a supportive environment that supports riders’ hard work and dedication.”
This summer, greet all riders with a smile and kind words, and perhaps a bottle of a cool beverage when receiving orders.
Consumers can download talabat on the iOS App Store, Google Play Store or Huawei App Gallery.
