Introduction

In the dynamic landscape of grocery delivery, the largest startup in Germany’s grocery sector, faced exponential growth, leading to significant challenges in HR management. The manual HR processes that once sufficed were no longer efficient, resulting in increased errors, delays, and an inability to keep up with the evolving workforce demands.
