Once the food ingredients are delivered to you, you can cook meals from recipes that they provide. The fulfillment process for a startup like this is pretty important, as it is important that the ingredients reach the customer in a timely manner, and effective fulfillment processes can help ensure quality of the food once it reaches the customer.<\/p>\n<p>It is interesting to see how Blue Apron will continue to grow and expand its customer base. Currently, Blue Apron has \u201c4,000 employees distributing 8 million meals a month\u201d. As the startup continues to expand, I\u2019m interested to see how to make its fulfillment and distribution process more efficiently, while continuing to make more money.<\/p>\n<p>Source:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/view\/articles\/2016-10-07\/meal-delivery-startups-show-tech-disrupted\">https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/view\/articles\/2016-10-07\/meal-delivery-startups-show-tech-disrupted<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fulfillment process includes the following processes: responding to a customer inquiry, creating a quote, processing a sales order, shipping the goods, and billing the customer and receiving payment.
