Yalla!Market: Deep Dive and Metrics of the Fastest Delivery in Dubai

How the Delivery Process Works at Yalla!Market


Yalla Market provides a product selection of 3,000 stock-keeping units (SKU) and promises to deliver groceries in 15 minutes utilizing an online and app-based dark shop concept.
A willing buyer just needs to pick up the goods he’d like to be delivered and place an order.

Once the order is processed, customers may expect their orders to be delivered within 15 or even 10 minutes thanks to the usage of electric scooters and bicycles by the delivery employees.
Yalla!Market's dark stores are located in different residential areas, so-called "15-minute cities".

It allows delivery team members to pick up goods from customers' orders within 3 minutes. What's more, they can deliver to many households within one trip. Fruits, dairy, and beverages are the most common items purchased at Yalla! Market.

Yalla!Market Business Model


The merchandise that Yalla Market sells is sourced directly from brands or through major wholesalers, meaning that each item sells for a profit for the company.

Yalla!Market is investing in product development, aiming to gather more data on customer habits. The company is adopting a “behavior prediction system” to adapt user experiences and offers, which will be based on their preferences to cut the amount of time spent placing purchases via the mobile application.

This data will be used in order to improve the Business Model behind Yalla!Market, deploying new delivery strategies across their service locations.
