FoodBeeper is an Algerian food delivery service founded by Mohamed Salah Tourab and Benabdallah Abdelaziz in 2017 in the city of Annaba, Algeria. Starting off the market competition as the first delivery app and startup founded and run by Algerian developers,[1] FoodBeeper now operates in 19 cities projecting a diverse collection of menus from partnering restaurants and fast foods. In the 4th quarter of 2021, the online food ordering platform announced its expansion to the grocery delivery market.
History[edit]
The adoption of e-commerce had been low in Algeria compared to other regional markets.[2] However, in 2017, two graduates from Badji Mokhtar Annaba University,[3]
Tourab and Abdelaziz saw this as an opportunity to launch an Algerian food delivery service. During its first days, the service provided customers in Annaba with the chance to order from nine affiliated restaurants. The FoodBeeper mobile app enables users to choose from the selection of restaurants displayed, fill their basket and press the order button.[4] A screen will then pop to let them check the estimated delivery duration and track it from the kitchen to the delivery-man to their doorsteps.[5] The GPS tracking system allows the courier to find the location of the customer and the best route to save time and deliver the meal quickly.
Market expansion[edit]
In 2019, it became an active domestic player in the capital, Algies, which was previously dominated by Africa’s e-commerce giant Jumia and its subsidiary Jumia Food.[6] In February 2020, FoodBeeper llaunched in Béjaïa, and a month later in the city of Oran.[7] The service has since expanded, and is now available in all of Guelma, Batna, Constantine, Souk-Ahras, Sétif, Blida, Boumerdes, Mostaganem, Tizi-Ouzou, Biskra, Chlef, Ouargla, Sidi-Bel-Abbes, Tlemcen, Bordj-Bou-Arreridj as well.
In a statement published in December 2021, FoodBeeper declared that [[grocery store fresh produce, healthy foods and locally-sourced ingredients will be delivered to their mobile app users, announcing thus their first steps into the grocery delivery market.[8] And while the platform may cover their pilot city, Annaba, first, they’re expecting to cover other cities in the first quarter of 2022.
Social sponsorship[edit]
Since its establishment in the Algerian delivery market, FoodBeeper has had a social presence as a sponsor of various tech activities, cultural events and philanthropic initiatives.[citation needed]
Tech conferences[edit]
As a large young adult population composes the country, the current generation, regarded as trendsetting and tech-savvy, has kept the Algerian e-commerce and food delivery sector growing.[2] In a series of tech events ranging from talks, conferences to workshops, FoodBeeper’s founders targeted the Algerian youth and shared their entrepreneurial and tech knowledge with fledgling startups and entrepreneurs.
In the conference[9] preceding one of the biggest technological events nationwide,[10] Tourab said that, by supporting such an event, he wishes to shed light on innovative startups and, especially, on the Algerian competency. At the same time, he unveiled his goal of rendering Annaba the tech hub of the country.[10]
Cultural events[edit]
Right after launching the app in 2017, FoodBeeper took part in the International Tourism Fair in Annaba.[11] Apart from sponsoring the event, the food delivery service was displayed as a feature of the city’s tourist friendly services. In 2019, the company sponsored the Algeria Tourism Awards that were held in Algies.[12]
On the environmental level, FoodBeeper was recently announced a sponsor of مسابقة زهرة العناب or “Jujube Flower Contest”. The contest held in the city of Annaba aspires to raise awareness of the necessity of taking care of green spaces.[13]
Philanthropic initiatives[edit]
In 2019, FoodBeeper sponsored a campaign organized by “Koulna Hiya”[14] (we’re all her), which calls for the end of violence against women.
In the first half of 2020, they funded the event “Thalla3” organized by Averroes Club,[15] from the medical college of Annaba, in order to raise awareness of myocardial infarction.
Shortly before the country opened its Schools' gates for the new term in October 2020, FoodBeeper launched the campaign “Cartable Ennadjah”,[16] which roughly translates as “success school bag”. They announced donating 30DA for each in-app order they deliver. The sum of which would then go to providing school supplies for the children in need.
Recognition[edit]
In January 2021, the General Union of Algerian Merchants and Craftsmen awarded Foodbeeper with a certificate of appreciation and gratitude[17] for their efforts in alleviating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Algerian consumer. Notably, As COVID-19 spread through the country, the Algerian government imposed a nationwide lockdown and non-essential retail was closed,[18] leaving the country highly dependent on e-commerce and delivery services.
