Challenges restaurant managers face with delivery and takeaway

Delivery and takeaway can provide significant increased revenue for restaurants, but many experience challenges such as:

• Unpredictable order volumes → It can be difficult to predict when during the day or week demand is highest, which can lead to either understaffing or capacity problems in the kitchen.

• High commission on delivery platforms → Restaurants often pay high fees to delivery platforms, and without good insight into profitability, this can eat into margins.

• No control over customer data → When orders go through Foodora, there is limited access to customer data, making it difficult to build loyalty and run own marketing campaigns.

• Weak connection between takeaway and shift scheduling → Kitchen staff is often scheduled based on restaurant traffic, but not always with higher volume from delivery orders in mind.

• Inventory management and waste → When takeaway orders are not connected to the inventory management system, restaurants risk either over-ordering ingredients or running out of items during rush hours.**
