Farm food delivery firm installs Geotab telematics to improve efficiency

Following a trial, London and Bristol-based farm food home delivery service Farmdrop have decided to install the Geotab solution throughout the fleet of Nissan NV200 vehicles.

Telematics company LEVL introduced the Geotab telematics platform which has been configured to work with an electric vehicle fleet and provide data specific to the customer needs.

To prove the solution would work for Farmdrop, LEVL installed a pilot system and monitored the performance of the electric vehicles, providing the customer information on state of charge, current charge state and driver behaviour data.

The business already use a routing and scheduling solution to plan deliveries and a Proof of Delivery application to ensure accurate deliveries, but were looking at ways to increase efficiencies and improve the performance of both the vehicles and the drivers.

The Farmdroppers use the Geotab Drive application on Android smart phones to record driver ID, daily vehicle inspections and to see where they stand on the integrated Driver Challenge app D2GO Geotab Add-In

Farmdrop’s customer service department known as the Happiness Team have full access to the MyGeotab portal, this access allows them to improve customer service by providing detailed information on delivery slots to their clients.
