Quick turn to delivery services with GloriaFood

San Vicente Central began taking orders with GloriaFood right at the start of the pandemic which severely impacted restaurant businesses.

Pablo R., the restaurant owner, wanted an online ordering system that was easy to use and had all the features necessary for a quick turn to a delivery business:

We started using GloriaFood during the pandemic. I chose this tool after researching and testing several. I found it totally practical, easy, and functional. In a very short time, we had the site up and running and were selling a lot of delivery orders every day.

Online ordering system features San Vicente loves

Some of the features that the owner of San Vicente Central found of great use for his day-to-day business were:

This is a feature that I loved and I have not seen or found on any other sites that allow you to do the same.

This is how the restaurant uses the Delivery Heatmap tab: they can see the delivery zones where they have made the most deliveries and adjust their delivery settings or promotions accordingly.

  • “GloriaFood has a very useful reports section.”
  • The option to set different operating hours for pickup and delivery.

The system has a lot of other configurations that are very useful and are very well put together. For example, with the service schedules.

  • “The section to configure promotions is also very good.”
  • The 3rd party order tracking integrations.

It also has a lot of advanced configurations that can be done as for example put the Meta pixel or Google among others.

  • “The customer experience from the mobile phone is exceptional. It looks like an app, but you are browsing! I think this is one of the strongest points.”

Apart from these, he also values the help he got along the way through the support chat:

Getting up and running didn’t take much effort. The support is good, and they have good instructions prepared so that, by following the steps, you can get everything done.

Leveraging fast online payments for the customers’ convenience

After quickly setting up the ordering system, Pablo R. decided to make the customer experience even more enjoyable by configuring the online payment service.

Using the option to pay upon ordering, all customers had to do was sit tight and wait for their food.

The premium function for online payments I think is key because it is a convenience for the customer and streamlines the whole process for both parties.
