HumanForest is allowing Deliveroo riders to access its green bikes via purchasing bundles of minutes in a bid to boost sustainable delivery across the UK capital. 

HumanForest says Deliveroo riders can purchase bundles of minutes as and when they need them, for making deliveries or for leisure, tackling the upfront costs of privately purchasing electric bikes. 

The company hopes the partnership will allow more businesses and consumers to make sustainable trips around the capital.

Laura Elms, head of sales & partnerships at HumanForest, says: “This partnership has been designed with delivery riders front and centre of mind, making access to affordable e-bikes a reality for them. The partnership will offer a sustainable and accessible platform which supports delivery riders whilst also bolstering our vision of a cleaner, greener world for all.”

Andy Batty, director of operations UK & Ireland at Deliveroo, says: “We are pleased to partner with HumanForest to not only boost sustainable delivery in central London, but to allow riders to take advantage of more affordable, clean and efficient modes of transport across the capital.”
