Complete and regional overview of catering companies in the city and the surrounding area
Since this month, you will find a complete and independent overview of catering companies with a takeaway or delivery service via the horecagroningen.nl website. Guests in the city and the surrounding area can order directly from the entrepreneur from the website. With this complete and independent overview, Horeca Groningen wants to offer entrepreneurs an extra helping hand during the corona crisis
In three clicks with your order
Horecagroningen.nl offers a complete overview where you can order or pick up food with an extensive company profile with menus, kitchens, photos and even available vacancies. The idea is that you can reach the order or pick-up options of the entrepreneur in three clicks.
Win-win: cheaper for catering entrepreneurs and customers
The idea for a regional food order platform arose during the first catering lockdown at the beginning of this year. "It quickly became apparent that the corona crisis had major consequences for the catering industry," says Joris van Berkel of Horeca Groningen.
“We immediately foresaw that ordering would become the new norm (for now) and that is still the case in the current corona situation. This means that catering entrepreneurs have become completely dependent on existing and expensive ordering platforms or have to offer their own ordering options.” With many existing food and delivery platforms, an entrepreneur spends a lot of money on membership costs, commission costs and sky-high transfer costs per dish. This is reflected in the price for the customer, the turnover of the entrepreneur and very low wages for meal deliverers who work for such platforms. Especially in this time you want to support the catering industry, which is why we created this platform.”
Free entrepreneurship and fair prices
Horecagroningen.nl was partly the result of a collaboration between the Municipality of Groningen, the Groningen Entrepreneurship Fund, the Province of Groningen and various catering entrepreneurs. The aim is to promote free entrepreneurship in the catering industry and to offer guests a favorable price for the dish. In addition, the platform can increase the findability of entrepreneurs and aims to keep employment and income within the region. Finally, the platform wants to raise awareness among its visitors by ordering regionally and directly from the catering industry, something that benefits both customer and entrepreneur.
Entrepreneurs can participate for free in horecagroningen.nl until 1 June 2021 and then remain a member without any obligation for a low annual fee. “Every catering company is welcome on our platform, regardless of its take-out or delivery service. This way we can offer our visitors as complete an overview as possible and we do not exclude anyone. Horecagroningen.nl is there for everyone.”
