Rapido is a hyper-local food and grocery delivery marketplace built for underserved tourist and secondary markets in LATAM where global delivery apps fail to operate.

We operate in high-tourism regions with fragmented merchants, limited logistics infrastructure, and fluctuating demand. Rapido aggregates local restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacies, and specialty stores into a single platform and operates a flexible driver network optimized for short distances, peak tourism cycles, and high average order values.

Since launch in May 2024, Rapido has grown to 7,000+ registered users, 50+ active merchants, and over $80,000 USD in gross revenue across two Costa Rican tourist markets. Average order values range between $70–75 USD, driven by grocery, bulk, and multi-item orders from tourists and local residents. The platform monetizes through a commission-based marketplace model with strong unit economics and low fixed costs.

Our competitive advantage lies in market selection, local
