Corona is the first virus in the world that has hit every nook and corner of the universe. For the first time, people have experienced maximum sanitization, social distancing, and other hygiene conditions. The pandemic has brought gala differences in the lives of people and the way they were living before.

It has impacted different industries differently like- transportation industry’s ROI goes southwards due to lockdown, quarantine, and social distancing practices, and, on the flip side, the pandemic has popularized the online grocery delivery industry that results in a record-breaking growth.

• The revenue from online food delivery uplifted by 17% from 2017 to 2018.

• After the pandemic severely hit the USA regions, the grocery delivery app downloads increased in the range of 150%-200% from February month in 2020 onwards.
