Ans to the Q no 01
As a local start-up company the opportunities and challenges did HungryNaki face on start-up as
compared with international Foodpanda are described below :
Hungrynaki was the first mover in providing online-food delivery services in Bangladesh in
2013. Whereas, Foodpanda, originated from Germany, their close competitor started their
operation sometimes later. As a result, they had great opportunities to grab the market share as
the first mover and also customers tended to be more interested in giving orders from them rather
than Foodpanda..
Hungrynaki also utilized their internet usage by improving their Search Engine
Optimization(SEO). As a result, in 2016 when someone searched for online food delivery
services in Bangladesh, in any search engine, Hungrynaki’s name was found at top, whereas,
their competitor Foodpanda’s name could be seen in a much lower position. This was also a
great opportunity for the business.
HungryNaki.com has a few challenges to overcome and working within the Trade
Improvement division is more challenging. The first challenges faced by hungrynaki compared
to foodpanda is that they couldn't deliver their food on time that they show in their app. But as
foodpanda is an international company they always take care of this thing that consumers get
their food on time.
Hungrynaki had a communication gap as a result they were very poor at their customer services.
Most of the time consumers could not connect to the company for complaints and others. If a
consumer complaint ,then their complaint was not addressed.
Hungrynaki lacked strategies as a result they could not give the quality services to their
customers. As foodpanda was doing it for a long time,they had enough experience about how to
deal with consumers and know about their needs before complaining.
