Foodservice home delivery - Better packaging needed

31 March 2016

Global delivery service grew from 2.7% of total foodservice sales in 2009 to 3.5% in 2014, representing an actual value increase of US$36 billion. Demand for takeaway and delivery service is growing, and that momentum is expected to continue over the long term.
Packaging is emerging as an area where many restaurants can significantly improve. Takeaway and delivery packaging must be cost effective, functional, easy to handle and pleasing to use; customers view delivery as a convenience service, but also a luxury, and the presentation of such meals must align with that perception in order to provide a satisfying experience (News Item Euromonitor, 25 February 2016).
