Customers of Talabat who order groceries from Talabat Mart or from the large hypermarkets featured on the Talabat application will be served by the vans.
Talabat, the top local IT company in the area for food delivery and q-commerce solutions, has partnered with Qatar Post to employ refrigerated vans to carry groceries throughout Doha during the busiest times of the summer.
Following the Ministry of Labour in Qatar’s decision on food delivery service providers to stop deliveries by motorcycle from 10 am to 3:30 pm, from 1st July until 15th September, 2022, talabat launched this new service which will benefit both riders and customers.

Having moved into the groceries home delivery space some 4 years ago already and having grown exponentially after acquiring some major hypermarkets as clients operating in Qatar, this latest collaboration with talabat in Qatar aims at guaranteeing consumers’ convenience during the current hot season, and comes as a wonderful addition to our portfolio of high-value clients, testament of Qatar Post’s experience and excellent levels of service.”
