Bolt Food has launched a new feature that allows users to order meals in advance.
The feature allows customers to pre-order food and place it for delivery even when restaurants are fully booked, closed, or in high demand.
Bolt Food said the new feature optimizes restaurant orders, boosts revenue, and makes meal preparation efficient.
Bolt Food Country Manager Edgar Kitur noted that the feature allows restaurants to optimize order management and kitchen preparation, couriers to increase their earnings by strategically planning deliveries throughout the day, and customers to enjoy their favorite restaurant meals through Bolt Food, all at their preferred time and location.
“Since we launched, there has been a 20% uptick in orders utilizing this feature,” Kitur said.
