Why We Expanded the Delivery Radius
When Munchix first launched in Karachi, our strict 4 km micro-radius was designed around one promise: ensure home-cooked meals travel stove-to-table without sitting inside sorting hubs or multi-stop delivery routes.
Over recent months, Karachi customers in neighboring areas constantly asked: "Why can’t I order Shaheen Begum’s famous Sindhi Biryani just 5.2 km away in Clifton?" or "Can Gulshan home chefs deliver to Gulistan-e-Johar Block 13?"
Thanks to our dedicated point-to-point rider fleet and high-density route dispatching, Munchix delivery riders now complete 6–8 km direct trips in under 22 minutes. By expanding the default coverage to 8 km, we can connect more families with genuine home kitchens without sacrificing temperature or freshness.
Chefs Stay in Total Control: 4km Whenever You Want
We know that every home kitchen operates differently. A solo home baker crafting intricate customized cakes might prefer a tight 3–4 km neighborhood radius to personally oversee handoff, while a weekend biryani specialist or catering chef might welcome orders from 12–15 km away.
toggle_onHow to Customize Your Kitchen Delivery Radius:
- Open your Vendor Dashboard on web or the Munchix Chef mobile app.
- Go to Kitchen Settings.
- Use the Delivery Radius Slider or tap quick presets (4 km, 6 km, 8 km default, 12 km, 15 km, 20 km).
- Click Save Kitchen Details — changes take effect immediately across all active menus.
Preserving Existing Kitchen Settings
To guarantee absolute operational stability, existing home kitchens that had already configured custom radius limits are unaffected. Newly registered home chefs automatically start with the balanced 8 km default, giving their kitchen instant visibility to thousands of nearby residents.
Direct Doorstep Fulfillment & Zero Commission
Munchix continues to support both delivery models:
- Munchix Managed Fleet: Dedicated freelance motorcycle riders collect freshly boxed food from the chef’s doorstep and deliver directly to the customer for a flat Rs. 150 fee.
- Independent Self-Delivery: Chefs can choose 0% Munchix commission, set their own custom delivery fee, and deliver via private riders, family, or third-party dispatch (Bykea, Indrive, Careem).
