Delivery services in Brazil have increased due to many people being at home, complying with social isolation, the so-called delivery, an English word that means “delivery”, has increased exponentially.
Mainly in the big capitals, where the concentration of companies that make delivery are more frequent, but it is important to remember that it is the Ministry of Health that has recommended the use of protective equipment for these professionals, because it is very important to avoid contagion.
It is known that in recent weeks this modality has grown a lot, but on the other hand it is also a challenging job, because it has also become another way of risking one's own life.
Merchants have reported improvements in the sector
Other small farmers who are already used to solidary direct trade arrangements have also noticed an increase in demand for organic and sustainable fresh food in the wake of the coronavirus crisis.
