For many food and beverage businesses like restaurants, coffee shops and juice bars, customer demand for delivery is at an all-time high. For many businesses this is the only way to grow their revenue in an efficient and scalable way. Though paying a 30% commission to 3rd party delivery services can result in a big drop in revenue. Orda is on a mission to democratize online and mobile app ordering, so this partnership is super natural.
Orda and Doordash partnered together to enable delivery for your business in a branded mobile app. With one click of a button you create a seamless service to deliver your items to your customers with a flat-fee cost. This is all possible thanks to the DoorDash Drive integration that Orda leverages as part of their marketplace to their members.
Businesses that use the Orda and Doordash delivery reported a 177% increase in native delivery sales and 182% increase in native delivery orders. This is amazing news for businesses that already have a strong client base.
If you offer online ordering, Orda and DoorDash Drive enables you to offer delivery without having to worry about logistics like scheduling drivers or paying for transportation costs.
