[Reminder] Winter is here - tips for the cold season ❄️🧑‍🎄

Temperatures are now close to or below freezing. There may be black ice and snowfall is forecast. Please note the following information and pass it on to riders:

  • Reduced speed - Reduced speed leads to fewer accidents ⏱️

  • Damage reports - Careful damage reports are essential for safe bikes ⚠️

  • Bike batteries - Charged batteries are all the more important due to the shorter runtime in winter 🔋

  • Winter equipment: Make sure you have enough rain pants and shoe covers for riders.


Note: Good equipment and functioning bikes have a big impact on the no-show rate for riders.

[Go-live] Adjustments in the HubOne app 📱🆕

  • Reset button replaced by quantity adjustment button

    • The new button now makes it possible to adjust the scanned quantity up or down without resetting the entire scan

  • Adding products to the restocking list via the search bar

    • It is now also possible to add products to the restocking list via the search bar in the restocking flow.

[Insight] Organic certificate - this is important when having visits from the authorities 👮

Once a year, the competent authority checks whether we are complying with the Organic Farming Ordinance. This involves many additional internal checks, which you can read about in Zendesk.

What the authorities repeatedly criticize is our storage. Below you will find reasons that you can use to justify our warehousing during the inspection.

  • All products are always packaged - with the small exception of unpackaged fruit and vegetables

  • No unauthorized persons in hubs (like customers in a supermarket) - have an internal sorting system

  • Shelves are equipped with barcodes and alphabetical numbering that can be scanned

  • Employees always know exactly which food has its fixed place and where

  • No organic product is placed next to a comparable conventional product to prevent mix-ups

  • Shelves are generally not provided with organic labels, as most are mixed and the location in the system can sometimes be changed

  • Every organic food is labeled on the packaging in accordance with the law and stored in the system in the same way, including a picture.

Note: Always report a visit from the authorities to your hub manager immediately.

[Action] New Customer Sampling

  • We are having a new customer sampling with Ferrero again

  • The sampling is for Kinder Country’s

  • This time, you will receive the cards and the samples not attached to each other

  • You should all have received cards and samples by now

  • Please make sure to add one card and a sample into every new customer order once you receive them

  • Please make sure to only add this to NEW CUSTOMER ORDERS, since the copy includes information regarding the beginner vouchers which would mislead existing customers
