Decades ago the Milkman would deliver to everyone's home, whistling as he placed a delivery of milk and other goods in the customers porch box. At that time, the Milkman was known as the person that was counted on to deliver the freshest local products possible to everyone's porch. The Milkman was known for being dependable, honest, hardworking and truly part of every customers family. With the intent of merging modern day convenience with nostalgia and a focus on local, Shatto Home Delivery has brought the Milkman back to the Kansas City Region.
Shatto Home Delivery is a service that brings the freshest and best tasting local products to a customer’s porch weekly, just as was done decades ago. The Milkmen will deliver just as was done decades ago, obtain the freshest milk and other products from local providers during the day, deliver those products to a customer’s porch box overnight ensuring they are ready to be retrieved by midday.
“Customers have been requesting the return of the milkman for the past twelve years”, said Matt Shatto. While Shatto Home Delivery was founded due to the sheer number of requests by customers of Shatto Milk Company, it was also founded for a broader purpose, to allow families today, to enjoy the experience and service that was present decades ago. “This is about providing customers with the best tasting and freshest local products, while at the same time providing local top of category businesses with the opportunity to be seen together taking advantage of a great opportunity to expand their marketplace and grown their businesses.”
While Shatto Home Delivery is focused on bringing back the Milkman, it is also focused on promoting local. Shatto Home Delivery will offer just over 400 unique products, all of them will be “hyper-local”, just from the Kansas City Metropolitan area. This is an effort to provide customers with the freshest and best tasting products possible, while also providing best in category companies a way to get in front of new customers with the intent of assisting all of these suppliers with their local growth plans. “Local is defined in so many ways these days, we decided early on, we wanted to only partner with companies that we could call our “neighbors”, companies that positively impact our community and are at the top of their respective category, whether that be milk, eggs, meat, jams, pasta, etc.” Said Matt Shatto
Shatto Home Delivery began its first delivery on October 5, 2015. Customers can visit www.shattohomedelivery.com to sign up for this unique service. The Company will be rolling its service out in a controlled manner, thus will be creating routes in areas with the greatest density of registered customers. Thus, customers are encouraged to share this opportunity with their neighbors to ensure a route is possible in their neighborhood.
Once a route is available in their neighborhood, customers can make and change their orders online up until the order “cut off” time which is usually 36 hours or so prior to their delivery. The Milkman will collect the items you have ordered and ensure they are delivered by hand to your porch box by midday on their delivery day.
“We have been excited about the idea of bringing back the milkman to this area for the past decade”, said Matt Shatto “We did not want to take that step however, until we knew we could do it right and knew that we had something special to offer the Kansas City area.” “Whether a customer decides to bring back the milkman due to nastagia, freshness of products, support of local or convenience, we are confident we can exceed their expectations as we offer a truly unique opportunity”.
