Why Your Restaurant Needs Online Ordering
During the pandemic dining in was no longer an option, and many restaurants had to shutdown. To help restaurants stay in business, they focused more on curbside pickup and delivery, whichhas now become the new norm in the restaurant industry. According to Hospitality Technology, online ordering has skyrocketed roughly taking up 40% of total restaurant sales, which is predicted to grow even more in the upcoming years. Despite the struggles that many businesses had to go through, online ordering has helped restaurants even more than ever. Customers no longer need to leave the comfort of their homes, but can now order food through third party apps like UberEats and DoorDash, but with these platforms comes a fee. With how popular online ordering has become, it’s hard to figure out where to start. You couldalways start with UberEats as your delivery service, you just need to pay a 15% fee for delivery orders, or 30% if you go for the Premium plan. The same roughly goes for other food delivery services as well. Putting in online orders, one after another is stressful and time consuming, in addition to the orders you have for your dine-in guests.
