How can a Mobile App help my food business?

How Apps are transforming restaurants and food ordering businesses

It doesn’t matter if you are foodie, a restaurant owner, a delivery man or a mobile app developer - whoever you are there is an acceptance that mobile apps have changed the face of food ordering forever.


Long gone are the days of digging out the Yellow Pages to find contact numbers for local restaurants and then calling them up to reserve a table.  Today's 'instant' society requires quick and easy solutions for the consumer to place orders, book tables, see menus and get reviews too.  And so mobile apps will continue to dominate this space and those restaurants and food providers that ignore this do so at their peril.


Whatever your view on all things tech, you have to accept that mobile apps have revolutionalised and transformed the restaurant and food delivery industry.


One of the reports on Statista states that it is expected that the food delivery business will grow by 9.3% by 2023 and the biggest segment in the industry is Restaurant-to-Consumer delivery.  And therein lies the huge opportunity for local businesses to leverage this in the months ahead.


As part of this, we were delighted to help one such small business with a unique food ordering mobile app that has literally transformed their business model and open up an exciting new market for them too.


Posh Nosh were historically in the contract catering business but, as a result of Covid, pivotted into the delivery market and launched an exciting new brand for their business called DeliDrop. At first, they didn't know where to start and initially felt that designing and creating such an app would be well out of their financial reach as a small business.


But they were wrong!


We worked with the team at DeliDrop to understand their exact requirements and then designed and built a unique food ordering app for them with a fully integrated food ordering system that quickly and easily enabled customers to book their lunch and get it delivered too.


From the customer's point of view, the app is quick and easy and from the business view they love the fact that they aren't having to pay the huge commission charges of global giants such as JustEat and Deliveroo.  And they love the instant ordering that ensures that when someone places an order, it instantly prints out in their kitchen ready to be prepared and packed for delivery by their in-house drivers.


The mobile app has literally transformed the way they work and it's growing everyday.


You can find out more about how we helpd DeliDrop transform their business with our bespoke App Development Services.


And you'll be pleasantly surprised that the Prices for Mobile Apps easily enable the small, local business to enter the market without blowing their budgets out of the water too!
