Wpis dostępny jest także w języku: polski

Zabka Jush, the new application and service of 15-minute express delivery of purchases to the home or office, has expanded outside the capital. Now it is also available to the residents of Gdansk – second location, after Warsaw, where the chain launched the new project in the beginning of November 2021.

Warsaw inhabitants can already use it, as the service already reaches over 1.2 million inhabitants in several districts. Just like in case of Warsaw, the service doesn’t cover the whole city of Gdansk but selected districts – Orunia and Chelm for now, while expansion in other districts and other parts of the Tricity is planned soon. Possibility of launching the service in other cities is also being analyzed. The application can be downloaded from both the App Store and the Google Play store.

Thanks to the cooperation with Zabka Group, customers may purchase items from the chain, such as Foodini’s snacks or Maczfit’s prepared meals, Wycisk’s juices and lemonades, Tomcio Paluch’s ready-made sandwiches or Dobra Karma’s valued meals. The shipping is just PLN 3,99, but it is free if the basket’s worth reaches PLN 35.

According to Tomasz Suchaski, Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Zabka Group, the e-commerce market will rise by double digits in the next several years, pushing the development of quick, cutting-edge, and simple online solutions. This is why Zabka Group extends portfolio by adding new, innovative businesses like Maczfit, Dietly.pl, and now the start-up Lite e-Commerce.

According to PMR, the e-commerce market in Poland was worth PLN 88.7bn (€19.4bn) in 2020, growing by 45.1% compared with 2019, according to our estimates. For the period until 2026, our baseline scenario is that the market will continue to expand at a double-digit pace through 2023, and that it will grow by 7-9% per annum in the three years after that, expanding by a total of 89% over this period.

The q-commerce market is growing not only in Poland but also in other countries thanks to the increase in demand for fast deliveries during the Covid-19 pandemic. On the Polish market, there is an instant delivery startup, Lisek, which offers its services in Warsaw and Cracow. Other delivery companies such as Uber Eats, Everli, Wolt, Bolt, or Jokr are also competing, as well as the Glovo chain, which has not only entered the q-commerce market but also plans to enable customers to order alcoholic products.
