During the spring and summer of 2020, takeout and all its variations—delivery, grab-and-go, meal kits, and more—emerged and evolved as a necessity for the foodservice industry’s survival, and an essential service to millions of stressed consumers. Now, as 2021 unfolds, the genie is out of the bottle.
Takeout and delivery menus should represent standard daily menu offerings, although operators can also offer featured to-go menu items that hold up well to the commute home.
Offering fully prepped meals, meal kits, and groceries to customers represents a valuable way to replace the loss of traditional cooked-to-order items. This concept not only builds sales and loyalty, it also helps stabilize staffing needs, maximize efficiencies, and lend a hand to suppliers who may also be struggling.
Read on for articles, tips, and recipes that can help increase sales with carryout, delivery, grab-and-go, and meal kit options.
