Beating The Odds: Surviving COVID-19 In The Digital Food Space

Beating The Odds: Surviving COVID-19 In The Digital Food Space

It's now a recurring vision: Every restaurant owner dreams of beating the odds, and surviving COVID-19 in the digital food space they inhabit.

This development forces "social distancing" through "contactless" options which will help slow the spread of the virus. Because of the no contact delivery options that are being rolled out amid the COVID-19 restaurants fears, the importance of keeping your kitchen open in spite of dining area closures, diminished foot traffic and social distancing is paramount. It has never been more critical for COVID-19 restaurants and brand leaders in the space to get this right....
