New Disruptor Enters the UK Takeaway Food Fight
LONDON, October 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Fresh entrant to UK takeaway market announces new and improved business model offering
90 per cent lower costs for takeaway restaurants than current competitors, including zero
commission
HeyMenu [http://heymenu.com ], enters the competitive UK online takeaway industry with
plans to disrupt the current market and its competitors, with a new and improved business
model.
HeyMenu will connect takeaway restaurants and consumers via an easy-to-use and
personalised website and app. HeyMenu's proposition is to provide up to 90 per cent lower
costs to takeaway restaurants than competitors, including zero commission. This is in
addition to more personalisation and dependable technology that ensures orders are not
dropped, payments are secure and reliable and deliveries are tracked from restaurant to
the front door.
The launch of HeyMenu sees the company on-boarding an average 500 takeaway restaurants
per week, developing at a significant fast-pace, prior to any substantial marketing
activity. The company will launch its full proposition to consumers in December, shaking
up the current battlefield that is the UK takeaway industry.
Chris Howard, CEO, HeyMenu, comments: "We have been watching, learning and researching
for a while and have identified a number of significant advancements that could be
introduced within the industry. Takeaway restaurants have to pay large percentage fees to
be on certain websites, such as Just Eat and Hungry House, but we believe they are not
being empowered for the price they pay. Their businesses are thriving, however not as much
as they should be, as they are unable to retain most of the profits to re-invest into
their own business. Instead they are working harder and probably for less return. We want
to offer a more rewarding experience and provide unique, personalised options for those
who love good food."
Chris also adds; "In just over three weeks, we have over 2,000 takeaway restaurants
signed up to HeyMenu and as a result of this unprecedented demand we have substantially
increased the contact centre staff and employed our own face-to-face sales force, along
with direct online sign up, such is the response to our commission free new business
model."
HeyMenu's aim is to provide the most attractive commercial offering to restaurants,
ensuring that each retains most of its profits, which can then be re-invested and result
in an enhanced quality of service to consumers. With these priorities, HeyMenu aims to
become the provider of choice for restaurants and consumers alike.
HeyMenu is on track to reach its target of on-boarding 10,000 takeaway restaurants
ahead of its December consumer launch, and anticipates on-boarding up to 250 per day from
there on. As a sign of confidence, HeyMenu offers a full money-back guarantee to all
restaurants that sign up, if they do not save in the first six months.
