It may happen in online and offline businesses to delay of delivery of goods. There might be reasons like sudden blackouts enabling the goods to be loaded, sudden strikes, drivers getting sick and hospitalized, and lack of stocks. Those are among the possible reasons for the delayed delivery of goods. The downside of this may lead to unhappy customers, negative reviews, and even loss of future business. Delayed shipment can disrupt orders of the second party that relies on your goods. The best thing to do is to deliver the goods in advance, check the news, check the driver, and check the updates of the current if there is a scheduled blackout. What can you say?

Yes business should do better with delivery to avoid having unhappy customers, having users writing negative reviews, and even loss of customers in the future business. The truth is that felayed shipment is bad for business
That is why I don't receive sudden orders. Those kind of orders that a customer would place order now and expect delivery in three hours. I always tell my customers to allow up to 6 hours for delivery to be processed. With that, every bottlenecks would have been cleared.
When we run a business that is depend on a delivery the biggest problem we face is not delivering the order goods in time on the exact place, and this problem is also common on those big business stores and if they can't avoid it they give some sorry gifts and store coupons for their customers in order to show them how sorry they are.

Some customers continue to patronize the products after understanding the cause of delayed delivery. It is best to alarm the customer of a few days' extension to avoid too many speculations of an early arrival of orders.
As a customer, I hate it when my order is delivered. I almost don't ever patronize a business that delays my order.
