The main objective of eChannelling’s ‘Eco Channelling Delivery’ initiative is to provide uninterrupted service during these challenging times that the country is going through. ‘Eco Channelling Delivery’ ensures prompt and attentive service with medication delivery guaranteed within a day.
The timely drive is implemented understanding the present country situation faced by society to fulfil their basic needs due to numerous issues. Additionally, commuting using a bicycle is environmentally friendly and a sustainable solution, as zero fuel and electric consumption for transportation contributes towards a healthier change in lifestyles and wellbeing.
eChannelling has continuously opened new avenues in creating a convenient lifestyle for society through the digital era using web and app platforms. Eco Delivery is undertaken by the SLT-Mobitel’s logistical arm through its mAgent service and part of the organisation’s commitment to help the nation receive essential medication through a prescription delivered to one’s doorstep seven days of the week.
eChannelling plans to expand the delivery service island wide, accommodating customers and the healthcare sector in addition to many more integrations with an array of service providers to facilitate a more convenient and reliable doorstep process driven delivery mechanism.
