While more shoppers may be eating at home still, that doesn't quite mean that they are cooking at home. In fact, many consumers are eager to enjoy the restaurants they know and love, and Grubhub is making it easier for them to do so without leaving the comfort of their couch.
The industry ally recently formed a new partnership with Deliverect, a global company that simplifies online ordering for over 12,000 establishments across 30 lucrative markets. The new partnership will allow Grubhub to streamline orders to improve accuracy and operational efficiency, while saving valuable time for foodservice operators.
"We hear from our restaurant partners that streamlining the ordering management process so that all orders flow through their POS is crucial for running an efficient operation, and we're excited to partner with Deliverect to offer this integration to our restaurant partners," said Steven Delzell, Director, Restaurant Integration Partnerships at Grubhub. "With a seamless online order management system, restaurant operators can spend more time preparing food and ultimately, delivering a better experience all around."
The new alliance allows for orders made through Grubhub to integrate directly into a restaurant's POS, bringing all orders to one device. According to a press release, restaurants on Grubhub will also be able to sync and manage menus directly from their POS, offering convenience and efficiency to foodservice providers. The new partnership also allows existing Deliverect customers and prospects to increase their order volume without compromising quality or efficiency harnessing the company's innovative and reliable solution.
"As Grubhub is a leading third-party delivery organization, we're excited to be able to enable this integration for our customers. Giving restaurants easy tools to manage their menus, provide insights into best-performing dishes, and reduce food waste are important steps restaurants need to consider to meet consumer demand. With this integration, Grubhub's restaurant partners can now also reap these benefits when including Deliverect in their tech stack," said Zhong Xu, Chief Executive Officer of Deliverect.
The integration is currently available to foodservice operators, and Deliverect is offering 60 days of free services to restaurants on Grubhub who sign-up with Deliverect, and restaurants not currently partnered with Grubhub can sign up for a 60-day free trial.
Jay Dai, Owner of New Jersey-based Sumi Ramen, commented on how the innovative collaboration is helping to boost the foodservice sector.
"The integration of Grubhub and Deliverect has been working smoothly and wonderfully. I highly recommend this product as it saves a lot of our time manually typing orders. It also reduced our order error rate to zero," Dai stated, noting several benefits of the newfound partnership.
