2020 took many turns we didn’t expect.
For a startup on the trajectory towards rapid growth in the beginning of the year, one can only imagine the shock and denial we felt upon realizing that gatherings and events wouldn’t come back anytime soon.
Our product, after all, is about celebrating time spent with loved ones at games, concerts, events, movie screenings, races…without missing a single moment waiting in lines buying food and drinks. It’s about empowering our partners to offer the best customer experience possible, and generate revenue with easy-to-use technology.
2020 was a tremendous test for us — one that might have been too brutal for a fledging young startup.
2020 was also a tremendous opportunity for us. Our technology is now at the forefront of making contactless ordering accessible at venues, properties and facilities anywhere within days.
Our team pivoted, tested, strategized, executed, and grasped every opportunity to adapt and survive. And survive we did — in fact, we thrived in our own ways.
Here are our responses to the trials and tribulations in the year of 2020:
Our partners have given us numerous shoutouts for helping them stay open during 2020. Our contactless ordering solution has helped them give their customers the peace of mind, support social distancing and offer curbside pickups. There’s nothing we love more than seeing our partners succeed.
Part of our pivoting strategy during the pandemic was developing new features that make our solution flexible for other markets, while focusing on solving current customer problems.
For example, we further perfected our premium suite meal package booking platform:
To help partners showcase their brand and fully customize their service offerings, we made our platform more flexible. We understand that many venues only want to partially re-open, or only offer pre-ordering vs. order now, so we made our platform so customizable that all these needs are addressed.
FanFood not only makes it frictionless for customers to place an order, but also frictionless for operators to manage and fulfill orders. With our easy-to-use Manager Portal and Delivery App, operators can save more time on tracking and communicating order details, and deliver to any seat, table, or location.
There’s more to the power of our platform than can be covered in this blog. If you want to see a quick demo, fill out the form on fanfood.app/demo
During these unprecedented times, we’re extremely grateful for our partners, customers, and you reading this blog right now. All of your support and attention on what we’ve been doing hasn’t gone unnoticed.
We’re super excited about the new year to come, especially given the promising news of vaccination and the high hopes that events will be returning in 2021. We’re better positioned than ever to take the leap next year and help many more locations modernize their F&B operations.
If we’ve achieved massive growth in 2020, just imagine what 2021 brings.
