Deliverect to Help Toronto Restaurants Manage Third-Party Delivery Apps

par Digital Main Street   |   29 janvier 2021   |   Partager :  

Digital Main Street is pleased to announce that Deliverect has been selected to offer its delivery optimization platform to Toronto restaurants this winter. This pilot is made possible through the Community Collaboration project, an initiative which was announced this summer under the Digital Main Street Future Proof banner. At least 100 independently owned restaurants are expected to receive free access to the platform for 90 days through the Community Collaboration pilot. 

Deliverect is a tool which aggregates orders from multiple third-party delivery apps and connects those orders directly to a restaurant’s kitchen. This alleviates the requirement to have staff maintain multiple tablets which reduces mistakes and wait times for patrons. Restaurants can increase their online delivery and take away sales and decrease their labour and error costs, all while increasing the business’ overall rating on delivery apps. Digital Main Street is supported through FedDev Ontario funding and in partnership with ventureLAB. 

“The Government of Canada is pleased to support Digital Main Street and innovative technology pilot studies like Deliverect, which are helping local main street businesses improve operations and customer experiences through platforms like Deliverect. We are proud to work with Digital Main Street partners including Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas (TABIA), Communitech, Invest Ottawa and the Regional Innovation Centres to help position entrepreneurs for success as we move towards economic recovery.” –The Honourable Mélanie Joly, Minister of Economic Development and Official Languages and Minister responsible for FedDev Ontario 

We are thrilled to be able to offer this valuable service to independent restaurants in these difficult times. It's no secret that restaurants are facing challenges and we are here to help. We are confident that Deliverect can make restaurants thrive this winter by managing their online sales in a way that increases sales and improves guest experience.”- Jerome Laredo, Chief Revenue Officer at Deliverect 

“Restaurants have been among some of the hardest hit segments of the economy due to COVID-19. CafeTO helped Toronto main street restaurants through the summer and fall and we’re pleased to partner with Deliverect to offer their ordering and delivery optimization tool free of charge during this difficult period.” – John Kiru, Executive Director at the Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas 

As Toronto restaurants experience ongoing closures and rely on take-out and delivery as their sole income stream, a tool that can reduce losses due to mistakes is a much-needed extra lifeline. The Community Collaboration project seeks to pilot solutions that target challenges facing main street small businesses. Pilot projects will run until March 2021.
