Company mission
FastAF believes in spending less time waiting and more time being, and that means getting better products, faster. FastAF was created to deliver premium essentials from the world's best brands in 2 hours or less.
Our take
FastAF promises to deliver premium goods from top brands to a customer’s doorstep in less than two hours. The company was spun out high-growth fulfilment solution Darkstore, and though only founded in 2020, its value already surpassed $200 million by the end of 2021.
FastAF sets itself apart from the super-competitive (and increasingly crowded) speedy delivery market through offering premium products from high end brands on its app – a niche that thus far has been largely overlooked.
It’s worth mentioning that there has been some criticism, not just for FastAF, but for the dark-store powered, ultra-fast delivery system as a whole. These concerns largely revolve around working conditions for delivery drivers, and impact on local businesses.
As for the future growth of the company however, it’ll be very interesting to see how it performs outside of its comparatively affluent strongholds in LA, New York, and San Francisco, which it's aiming to expand beyond in the near future.
