Operational model

Payoda Dairy serves a large customer base in Gurugram and leverages technology to deliver on time to keep its promise of fresh and non-pasteurized milk and food products. The business works on a subscription farm-to-door model, delivering products schedule-wise. The brand provides a mobile app that allows customers to place orders, select delivery times, and track their orders. The admin panel gave the business owner complete visibility and control over their operations. The driver application informed the drivers about the deliveries for that day.

Challenges Faced by the Brand

Inefficient empty milk bottle management – Empty bottle logistics includes the processes involved in the reverse distribution of products, ensuring the efficient management of returned or recyclable items. The software solution implemented by the brand did not support empty milk bottle tracking, which led to;

• The misplacement and financial setbacks.
• The brand and its customers encountered transparency issues in tracking and overseeing these empty bottles, including the number of bottles per customer, the overall count, and any surplus bottles.
• The lack of empty bottle information for the customers adds to the confusion.

Ineffective route planning: The brand’s current software solution lacks the capability for multiple route planning, causing challenges:

• Efficiently managing deliveries with speed and precision.
• As the brand experienced growth, manually creating routes and assigning orders to drivers became difficult.
• With the expansion of its customer base, this approach has demonstrated susceptibility to errors.

Rigid subscription order management – Due to software limitations, the brand faced challenges:

• Providing flexible subscription orders was restricted to fixed delivery schedules.
• Customers cannot place personalised subscription orders, impeding the brand’s goal of establishing a benchmark for customer satisfaction.
