Dot-com bust Kozmo makes comeback as online warehouse delivery service | Food Dive

April 25th, 2018 · No Comments

Here we go again:

  • Kozmo.com, a website devoted to grocery delivery created during the dot.com frenzy of the 1990s, has found new life through Yummy.com, a grocer that operates six stores in the Los Angeles area and also does delivery. Yummy.com is relaunching Kozmo.com as a quasi-warehouse club, according to Digital Commerce 360.
  • The new Kozmo.com makes on-demand deliveries within two hours of an order being placed by using Yummy.com’s order fulfillment and delivery system. It is expected to be profitable from the start. Digital Commerce 360 said the relaunch will start by serving the Los Angeles metro area, but the company hopes to develop relationships with other retailers who might benefit from selling through the website. It plans to expand Kozmo.com by the end of 2018.
  • Kozmo.com sells items found in the grocery store, such as meat, packaged foods, produce, health and beauty products and alcohol. But unlike other warehouse clubs, it will not sell products in bulk packages. Instead, the business offers deals to customers who buy several regular-sized products.
