Grab Philippines on Tuesday resumed its delivery services to serve the essential needs of the public amid the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019.
“Upon careful assessment of the situation on ground and after discussing with our regulators, we have resumed GrabFood and GrabExpress operations as of 1:30 p.m. March 17, with skeletal delivery-fleet,” Grab said in a statement.
Grab said the decision was made to support the food establishments that would continue to operate and maintain continuous flow of goods to serve the essential needs of Filipinos during these trying times.
Delivery-partners are advised to prioritize safety at all costs.
“We will continue to exercise strict safety measures such as contactless delivery, temperature checks, increased cleaning frequency of delivery-bags, and more in cooperation with our merchant-partners,” Grab said.
Grab earlier suspended its Grabcar services in compliance with the Luzon-wide community quarantine imposed by the government to curb the spread of COVID-19.
