Online grocery shopping a welcome relief following Eid shopping frenzy

As Ramadan nears its end, post-Iftar gatherings often lead to shopping sprees, spanning malls to specialized stores for clothing, household items, and electronics.

This exhaustive quest drains both feet and finances, pushing grocery shopping to the bottom of the list.

Traditionally, families schedule weekend trips to supermarkets and wet markets to gather groceries for the grand Eid feast, where loved ones gather to celebrate.

While dishes like shemai, polao, and roast are staples, every household aims to introduce an innovative recipe each year, leading them to hunt for new ingredients, which adds to the already busy Eid preparations.

The rise of online grocery platforms like Chaldal, Khaasfood, pandamart and many more provides value for consumers on multiple ends, especially during Eid, offering affordability and convenience. 

Mohammad Tabrej Khan, director, Q-Commerce, shared: “pandamart has become the first choice for our consumers who value the affordability and convenience that comes with shopping from home. During Ramadan and especially the last 10 days before Eid, foodpanda typically experiences a huge upsurge in grocery orders from pandamart. Particularly, we see order volumes going up by 3 to 4 times a week before and leading up to chaand raat, which truly highlights how pandamart provides everything our customers need for this festive season and how it has become a part of their daily lives."
