Shutl.co.uk - Ensuring Speedy Deliveries In The UK

As you can tell by glancing at the domain itself, this startup is a British one. It renders a service which is very interesting, as it connects retailers with these courier companies that take care of same-day deliveries.

That is, Shutl names a carrier for each delivery by measuring the price and the past performance in order to arrive at the best option for each specific order.



The basic premise is that shoppers themselves will be able to receive what they have purchased online within a 90-minute timeframe. Alternatively, there is a one hour delivery window they can go for every day of the week, at all times of day.

Shutl has just launched, and the service is being tested in London first. Nationwide support is bound to come some time down the line if all goes well. And I just wonder, will we see something like it for the United States anytime soon? It is clear that a single service could not cover the country from coast to coast, so that maybe regional alternatives will start cropping up one by one.
