Dorchester Brewing Company launched home delivery during the pandemic to protect their team. Having a dedicated operations manager and a qualified driver pool was a game changer for them.

Without Metrobi, we wouldn’t be able to reach as many customers so easily and provide a flexible delivery option. We are also now selling to wholesale accounts. We did not have access to that earlier because we had no delivery system. In one day, we sold dozens of cases to venues. They will be coupled with the other consumer deliveries keeping overall delivery costs down. This is a great model for us.

Delivery was really stressful

Initially, we did the deliveries ourselves, one employee was doing it. It was really stressful. We’d put certain deliveries in the vehicle, deliver them, then come back and pick up more packages. Delivery route planning was also challenging, we even tried using some software but it was not accurate.
