During this time of year, adults and children alike are reminded of the burning question: How the heck does Santa make a delivery to every Christmas-celebrating household in the entire world in one night? Keep reading to find out, and learn how a good home delivery software can make you almost as efficient at Kris Kringle himself.

The History Of Santa Claus

Whether you know him by Saint Nicholas, Kris Kringle, Father Christmas, or good ol’ Santa Claus, the man with the beard is regaled throughout the world as a one-night-only gift-bringer to children. But how did we get the Santa we know and love today?

Santa Claus as we know him evolved from the historical Saint Nicholas, a fourth-century Greek bishop who was known for his kindness and generosity. His legacy has lasted for centuries. Saint Nicholas soon became known as the patron saint of various groups including sailors and children, as well as the patron saint of entire cities, including Amsterdam and Moscow.

By the Middle Ages, children were given gifts in honor of Saint Nicholas on the day of his death, December 6. However, as religious tensions evolved in Europe, there was an opposition to the worship of saints. In order to keep the tradition of providing gifts to children going, Saint Nicholas became ‘Santa Claus’ and the gift-giving day was moved to Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Since then, Santa Claus has evolved from a saint to a jolly, white-bearded man who delivers presents to every child in the world on Christmas Eve.

Santa’s Hectic Delivery Schedule

So, just how many deliveries is Santa expected to make in one day? One source estimates that there are about 526 million Christian children worldwide who might be waiting for St. Nick to deliver a new toy on Christmas Eve. The actual number of people who celebrate gift-giving on Christmas could be much higher. But essentially, that breaks down to over 6,000 kiddos per second that Santa needs to visit. Maybe Santa should get into the delivery software industry and share some of his tips!

Could A Home Delivery Software Help Santa Claus?

A good home delivery software can do a lot. Can it figure out how to help one driver make 6,000 deliveries per second for a 24-hour period? Probably not. But that doesn’t mean people haven’t tried to guess how the big man does it. You can always rely on NORAD to tell you where Santa will be on Christmas Eve.  

Santa’s schedule is a lot different than the industries that we help with our home delivery software. While Santa makes deliveries one night a year over the entire world, the industries that DBP serves focus on recurring deliveries. Businesses like small dairy farms or water jug delivery businesses who make deliveries to their customers weekly or biweekly, for example, can benefit from our delivery software.

Who Needs A Home Delivery Software?

If your business makes home deliveries, then you would likely benefit from a delivery routing and management software. There are different kinds of software for different industries. For example, a pizza delivery restaurant is going to need a different delivery software than UPS who will need a different software than a recurring home delivery business. Delivery Biz Pro mainly provides service to the latter of that group. Keep reading to learn what type of industries and business models make a good match for our software.
