The Yandex team has announced the launch of its Yandex Lavka delivery service in Sochi, which already offers over 4,000 products, including ready-made food and household goods. Delivery takes only 15 minutes from five darkstores. Expansion to ten darkstores is planned to cover the Adler, Sirius, and Krasnaya Polyana districts.
Local products have become an important part of the assortment: about 20% of the goods come from Sochi producers, such as "Sochi Meat Processing Plant" and "Sochi Bakery," as well as from companies in the Krasnodar Territory.
With the launch of the service in the region, more than 600 new jobs will be created, including couriers, assemblers, and cooks. Couriers will receive electric bicycles with IoT modules. The press service emphasized that delivery drivers will monitor speed and comply with traffic rules.
As a reminder, Yandex Lavka began its operations in 2019 and already operates successfully in several major cities in Russia and abroad, including Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Almaty.
