Special discount for knowitall.ch readers throughout May!

A new delivery service has just been launched in Geneva, which allows customers to receive deliveries from neighborhood stores in under an hour… including Sundays, where places are open!

Developed by enthusiasts of technology and convenience, 2yourdoor.ch went live in November 2016. Since then, the site has grown rapidly with new shops and product offerings being added on a regular basis. Today, the site allows customers to order more than 40,000 products from around 250 locations in Geneva (restaurants, supermarkets, grocery stores, butchers, Halle de Rive, bakeries, pharmacies, florists, etc.)

Asked what inspired them to get into the delivery business, the founders told knowitall.ch, “We are passionate entrepreneurs with years of experience in big multinational corporations and lots of expertise in customer service, sales, digital marketing, and e-commerce.  With our entrepreneurial mindset and relevant experience, we felt we could create something of value. There is a need in Geneva for a service of this kind and we felt empowered to address the current demand."

Appealing, make-you-smile cards
Asked how she came to set up her own card business in Switzerland, Designer and Founder of Little Red Fox Designs, Audrey Puttemans, told knowitall.ch, “I have been drawing greeting cards as a hobby since 2013. In 2015, when my young nephew in the United States was hospitalised, I realised there was a dearth of appealing, make-you-smile cards for children in the big stationery stores. I couldn't find anything that I would have wanted to send him to cheer him up, so I sent him one of my own creations. It was then that I realised that there may be other people who liked my designs too, and Little Red Fox Designs was born. The Little Red Fox was one of my early doodles, and I found him so winsome that I chose to make him the face of my company.”
