Abstract: On the rise of online shopping, advanced delivery system makes life easier. This paper aims to investigate the positive and negative outcomes associated with faster delivery systems. Overall, this study considers faster delivery integral to a growing domestic economy. However, it should not be overlooked the potential adverse effect onto environment due to the inefficiency nested in such intense service. Additionally, larger firms, with more resources and better infrastructure, could easily meet such high demand, which small local business struggles to achieve. Overall, such intense demand and competition lead to better quality service and positive spill-overs.
