Hi. We’re Doddle. We’re the purple parcel people and we’re passionate about all things parcels. We want to change the way people collect or return their online shopping.We know your customers have better things to do than stay in all day waiting for deliveries or stand in never-ending queues at the post office.There’s no reason why the customer experience for click and collect shouldn’t be as good as your usual in-store experience. That’s wherewe come in.

Core service overview.
CollectWe’re a click & collection option at the checkout of many online retailers. When we’re not at the checkout, you can still have any parcel delivered to Doddle.
Select Doddle as your click & collect option and your Doddle store of choice as your delivery address. We’ll get in touch by textor email when it’s ready to be collected.
Not happy with your purchase? We can return shopping to any online retailer.
Simply go to one of our Doddle locations with whatever you need sending back and we’ll do the rest. No added paperwork or extra hassles.
Thrown out the packaging? Our Parcelistas can wrap and pack your return in pretty purple packaging, too.

Carrier specific model.Some retailers have relationships with Carriers which provide the retailer with access to that carrier’s proprietary PUDO network.

The unique aspect of Doddle’s model is the ability for consumersto order from any ecommerce site and have that parcel delivered into a Doddle store. This results in genuine consolidation of online orders and drives benefits for each of the retailer, carrier and consumer.

Supply chain efficiency.
Growing parcel volumes and cheaper or free delivery offers are placing a greater strain on logistics.
Consumers are choosing retailers based on the best collect and return options due to being let downby poor delivery experiences.
Retailers are having to spend more to handle the growing volume of complaints due to delivery issues.
Market challenges:
Doddle guarantees first time delivery with consolidated drops to our stores, reducing a significant cost to the supply chain.
Doddle is developing its own logistics capabilitiesto take full advantage of the value created byour network.

Versioning and conflicts.
• Particularly when a store drops into an offline state, we expect conflicts
• Can happen in the store systems or the backend functions
• Resolution is much easier if:• Append only• Record events
26
Document attachments.
• We take a photo of every item passing through the store system for collection
• We use Couchbase’s attachment support• A backend lambda function backs up images to S3
So what’s happened?

Key decision.• The benefits and acceleration we get from Couchbase
outweighs the overhead of feeding and watering the installation
• Now we have it, we can look to exploit other differentiators from DynamoDB
