Thistle drivers are powered by Onfleet

Delivery is personal

Onfleet knows that delivery is personal. It's a genuine brand touchpoint in a contactless click-to-order world. This connection between a business and a happy customer is made possible by drivers who care about safe, on-time and dependable deliveries. We design our product around these central participants.

Delicious, nutritious plant-forward meals, snacks, and cold-pressed juices, too!

Meet Lauralee

Lauralee grew up in the Bay Area. She began working as a delivery driver in 2019 at Thistle, an Onfleet customer that delivers nutritious, plant-forward prepared meals, snacks, and cold-pressed juices. Lauralee added this gig job as a way to supplement her income while she pursued her art and also worked in a popular Oakland restaurant Mua, which has since temporarily closed during COVID. She increased her shifts at Thistle to make ends meet and continues to deliver and train new drivers on Onfleet's app. Typically, Thistle drivers will do around 14 deliveries in a 2-hour morning window.

Simple to use and share

"I'm training two new drivers. They were nervous about using a new software program. I told them, just wait. Onfleet makes it simple. In less than a minute of downloading the app and understanding the details, they agreed.
