ARE YOU A PUB DOING OR CONSIDERING DELIVERY AND/OR TAKEAWAY FOR FOOD AND BEVERAGES?
In the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, many pubs are looking to offer foodservice and drinks to patrons stuck at home.
Challenges include:

- PACKAGING: the best dishes can be ruined by the wrong packaging. Included in the PFS bundle is a guide to packaging choices and selection, and some discounts to get started

ONLINE ORDERING & PAYMENTS
Order Up! is an Australian start-up working with pubs. It offers an all-in-one menu ordering system that is easy for venues to implement, with no fixed term contracts. Most customers prefer an efficient online ordering system to conveying an order over the phone, and it removes the need for staff to take calls.
It requires no infrastructure or hardware from the venue beyond an internet connection, and manages online ordering, payments and even delivery logistics – all under the venue’s own brand.
Customers can easily access the system via any mobile device, without requiring an app, download or specialty software. It can also be multilingual.
In the wake of the crisis, Order Up! is providing free setup (usually around $1k) and heavily reduced fees to get more pubs started.

BICYCLE DELIVERY SERVICE
Bolt Bikes provide commercial e-bikes through flexible rental subscriptions starting from $69 per week, which includes full maintenance. They incorporate a long-lasting battery to meet business demand.
The bikes could be used to offer delivery rider jobs to existing staff or new hires.
Also, Bolt has created a noticeboard called Bolt Jobs that connects with its existing network of over 1,000 delivery riders looking for work with local businesses. The service is 100 per cent free to use.
PROMOTION OF YOUR SERVICE
The third challenge in setting up a delivery system for food and alcohol is getting the word out.
The Happiest Hour (THH) connects pubs and venues with patrons looking for ideas, promotions, or simply the nearest offering.
THH has created a custom function for its 100,000+ app users to easily find pubs delivering food and drinks. It will be promoting the service through its push notifications, and already over 100 pubs can be found using the system.
FACEBOOK & PAY-PER-CLICK PROMOTION
For venues interested in actively promoting their new ordering and delivery services on Facebook, Men At Work PR provide customised social media marketing.
The advantage of Facebook’s pay-per-click marketing is that ads and promotions by your venue can be targeted to very specific markets, such as only to people within a specific postcode or age bracket.
Men At Work (MAW) are providing several levels of Facebook marketing as options in the PubTIC Foodservice Solution.
