Online Shopping and Goods Delivery

This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

Due to the large scale social distancing policy, this initiative aims at ensuring the availability of foods supply and the stability of commodity prices by collecting food commodities from farmers in various regions of East Java. East Java Provincial Government provides an online grocery shopping service to the public during the Covid-19 outbreak through a website. This website facilitates transactions between local people and local grocery sellers.
