What is Same Day Delivery?<\/b><\/h2>\n

\"what<\/span><\/p>\n

Same day delivery is when an item is delivered on the same day that the customer ordered.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To deliver orders quickly, the inventory has to be fulfilled locally from distribution centers, micro fulfillment centers (MFCs) or stores that are relatively near to the customer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When a customer shop online and check-out the selected items, backend systems check inventory availability within close proximity to the customer.<\/span><\/p>\n

After checkout, the order is dispatched to a driver based on pre-set rules and the driver delivers to the customer on the same day?.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next day delivery is a process where a consumer shops online and receives their package the following day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Until recently, next day delivery was the premium service with most logistics operations set up to provide two day delivery to customers as the fastest option.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This still applies for many businesses.<\/span><\/p>\n
