Fresh Turf

Waiting for a package to be delivered can be frustrating as deliveries mostly happen during office hours. Furthermore, customers often miss the delivery window and proceed to worry about the safety of their packages. To ensure the convenience of online shopping, the Singapore government has created a nationwide system of delivery lockers from which the public can retrieve packages ordered online.

FreshTurf, a technology company in Singapore, soughts to create a secure way of making these lockers available to any delivery company wishing to utilize the service. Think of it as the Uber of delivery lockers. We speak to one of the co-founders of Fresh Turf, Jarryl Hong about the creation of this blockchain startup and all its operations.
