I co-founded Ordrs with Jimi while at York, and we officially launched operation in Lewisham, London, in 2019. We partnered with local grocery stores to offer same-day delivery, and I did all the deliveries myself at first. As the company grew, I hired local people and paid them above the London living wage.
2020 was an unpredictable year for the business world and the trend appears to have continued with the spontaneous lockdown announcement on Monday. Personally, I have started the year with great reflection.
