> Ordering for delivery often requires extra packaging and extra handling. Items that can all be thrown together in a single plate may need to be put into separate containers, which takes extra time in the kitchen. Probably they are also missing upsell opportunities on higher-margin goods (how many people are ordering alcohol, desserts, or just drinks in general for delivery?)
Good points, on the other hand I would think there's way less work for each order with takeaway:
- less waiting tables
- less cleaning of floors, tables and plates
?
- JAlexoid 6y agoPeople cost more than packaging. So it's not exactly an easy calculation. Often delivery can be optimized much better, than in person services(including takeaway). Making 10 packs of fries takes as much manpower, as 1 pack. If you can batch it well, then you can optimize costs. But most people in restaurant business are crap at optimization, that's why McD is this big...
