Gorillas

Gorillas is a fast-growing  German on-demand grocery delivery company, that uses Quinyx to support their riders and warehouse staff to change their shift, request time off, check their schedules, and punch in/out of work with a fingertip. 

According to Alexander Brunst, General Manager, Gorillas was looking for a partner who could support ensuring their rider’s workdays run as smoothly as possible whilst taking into account the individual wishes of their employees.

“Since we launched back in June 2020, we have experienced a period of rapid growth, throughout which we have provided our users with instant access to essentials. Our Riders, who sit at the heart of the company, play a crucial role in this, thus making it imperative that we ensure their workdays run as smoothly as possible - from the planning and scheduling of their shifts, to checking in and out of work."

How Gorillas uses Quinyx

• Scheduling and accurate time tracking: Couriers are automatically reminded to punch in when they start working and punch out at the end of their shift via the Quinyx app.
  
  
• Swapping shifts: Through the use of the Quinyx app, Gorillas is able to take most shift preferences into account when scheduling.
  
  
• Continuous scheduling optimization thanks to AI: The offering includes various options to deliver continuous schedule optimization through automated product functions. For example, two AI-functions, automatically creating optimized schedules and assigning the shifts to employees were recently introduced for optimized results. These two functions ensure that drivers are assigned their contracted hours.
