Sargasso Sea Mobile Delivery Service Expands

July 27, 2019

Sargasso Sea –  an online marketplace and mobile delivery service — announced its second round of expansion since launching the startup 6 months ago.

The company is extending its service into more parts of Southampton and expanding its restaurant partnerships to a total of 20, and said that “further expansion in restaurant partnerships, delivery locations and grocery delivery options are planned for late 2019 and early 2020.”

“We want our customers to know that we’re adding great new restaurants every month, that we’re putting more delivery agents on the road to make sure they get their deliveries when they want them and on time, and that we are moving quickly to continue geographic extensions to both the east and west ends of the island,” said Colin Rego, Founder and President of Sargasso Sea Ltd.

“Our customers have been asking for these expansions and we want them to know we hear them and we are on the move to meet their needs and are excited about what we have in store for them towards the end of the summer.”

“The company’s expansion has been a significant boom for Bermuda’s gig economy. Since January 2019 the company has completed 4 rounds of recruitment events for delivery agents and management positions. Their current complement of workers includes 48 delivery agents and 3 managers and they are continuing to add new delivery agents every month,” the company said.

“One of Bermuda’s fastest growing startups, Sargasso Sea Ltd continues to look at new ways to generate revenue and expand their business partnerships, with founder Colin Rego indicating they are looking to add grocery delivery options to their marketplace by September.”

Mr. Rego added: “We are excited about the potential for new types of merchants to add to our app and are working hard to ensure our marketplace has something for everyone. We have been amazed at how quickly we have grown in the last 6 months, with our monthly revenue streams far exceeding what we originally projected when we launched.”

Sargasso Sea has seen record growth, with a 300% increase in weekly revenue since their launch, a customer base of over 4700 individual signups for their app and over 800 orders being delivered each week.

Earlier this year, Ignite Bermuda, a new business accelerator on the Island that supports entrepreneurs, chose Sargasso Sea to be a part of their first cohort of 17 companies that they provide support.

New restaurants that can be found on the Sargasso Sea App are: Buzz in Warwick, Vegan 4 Lyfe, Om Juicery, Casablanca, and The Terrace. Additional restaurants starting up with Sargasso Sea Ltd in the next weeks are Rosa’s, Docksiders Pub, Fourways Inn and other MEF Restaurant favorites.
