Driveree App Set to Boost Australia's Economy with Fair Pay for Drivers and Affordable Delivery Services!


Victoria, 15 Nov 2024Driveree App, an innovative food delivery platform founded in November 2021, is making waves in the Australian market by offering fair pay for drivers, discounted food delivery services, and support for local restaurants. Under the leadership of CEO Karanbir Singh, Driveree is rapidly growing, positioning itself as a major contender against larger food delivery giants while contributing to Australia’s economy and making food delivery more affordable for everyone.

Fair Pay for Drivers: A Priority for Driveree

One of the core principles of Driveree’s success is its commitment to providing fair compensation for delivery drivers. Unlike many larger food delivery platforms, Driveree ensures its drivers are paid a basic km rate plus commission on deliveries, allowing them to earn a reliable and sustainable income. This approach not only attracts drivers but also creates a sense of loyalty and pride among Driveree’s workforce, who feel respected and valued.

CEO Karanbir Singh explains: “We believe in creating a fairer and more transparent delivery model. Our drivers are an essential part of our success, so it’s important they’re compensated fairly for their hard work. By offering predictable pay through a combination of basic km rates and commission, we’re helping our drivers earn a steady income, making Driveree a great choice for those seeking fair wages in a growing gig economy.”

Supporting Local Restaurants and Small Businesses

As inflation and rising living costs put increasing pressure on small businesses, Driveree has emerged as a key ally for local restaurants across Australia. The app provides an affordable and efficient way for restaurants, especially independent and small eateries, to reach a wider customer base without the high fees typically charged by larger food delivery platforms.

Through discounts and promotions, Driveree helps customers enjoy affordable meals while simultaneously boosting sales for local businesses. In addition, Driveree offers restaurants powerful digital marketing tools, helping them increase visibility and attract more customers, especially those who may be struggling to market themselves in an increasingly competitive space.

“We want to see local restaurants succeed, which is why we offer a variety of tools and discounts to help them grow,” says Karanbir Singh. “Driveree’s mission isn’t just about making deliveries—it’s about helping small businesses thrive and contribute to a more sustainable and equitable economy for all Australians.”

Affordable Food Delivery for Australians

Driveree’s pricing strategy reflects its commitment to making food delivery accessible, especially as groceries and dining out become more expensive due to rising inflation. With the $15 discount on orders over $50, Driveree is making it easier for families to enjoy affordable meal delivery from their favorite restaurants, without the inflated prices seen on other platforms.

“The cost of living is rising, and more Australians are looking for ways to save money. By offering affordable delivery options and special promotions, we’re ensuring that food delivery is within reach for everyone,” says Karanbir Singh. “Our goal is to help people continue enjoying the convenience of food delivery while saving money in the process.”

Driveree’s Growth: A Positive Force for the Australian Economy

Driveree’s ability to scale rapidly has been key to its success. Originally valued at $13 million in Geelong, the app’s rapid growth and national expansion are driving projections of a $50 million valuation by 2025, with the potential to reach $100 million by the end of 2025. This growth is reflective of Driveree’s innovative business model and its increasing popularity among Australians looking for affordable, reliable food delivery options.

With a unique multi-service model that combines both food delivery and ridesharing, Driveree is expanding its footprint nationwide, from Melbourne to Sydney and beyond, and is poised to capture a significant share of Australia’s $150 billion food delivery market. As the app grows, it continues to create jobs, support local restaurants, and make food delivery more affordable for Australians across the country.

“We are committed to building a platform that supports everyone—from drivers earning fair wages, to restaurants gaining more exposure, to customers enjoying affordable food delivery. Our model is about creating an ecosystem that benefits all parties and contributes to a stronger Australian economy,” says Karanbir Singh.

A Vision for the Future: Economic Stability and Growth

As the Australian economy faces new challenges, Driveree is helping to drive positive change. With plans for further nationwide expansion and the goal of reaching $100 million in valuation by 2025, Driveree’s leadership is committed to not only creating a profitable business but also contributing to the broader economic health of the nation.

The company’s approach to fair pay for drivers, affordable pricing for consumers, and support for local businesses is helping to foster a more equitable economy. As Driveree continues to grow, it remains focused on strengthening the financial stability of Australian families and businesses during difficult economic times.
