The Truth About E-Commerce, Food Delivery & Quick Services – Are They Really What They Seem? In today’s fast-paced world, people rely on e-commerce, food delivery, transportation, and quick-service platforms for convenience. With just a few taps, everything is available at our doorstep.

The Hidden Reality Many of these platforms market themselves as time-saving, cost-effective, and essential. However, behind the scenes, they often: Monopolize the market, reducing fair competition for local sellers. Charge high commissions, forcing businesses to increase prices or operate at lower margins. Prioritize speed over sustainability, leading to excessive packaging waste and increased carbon footprints. Control pricing and service quality, leaving both consumers and vendors with limited control. So what's now? I created a ecosystem called Hyper local gig marketplace.
