Newsroom 18/09/2018 | 10:51

According to foodpanda.ro, with the end of summer holidays and returning to school or office, online food orders increase significantly. The first week since the start of the new school year, the burger was the most ordered online culinary product, recording an increase of about 70 percent compared with the summer medium.

Besides burgers, the most ordered dishes were: pizza, Chinese food and traditional Romanian cuisine. In the mentioned period, online orders made on the platform grew by about 14 percent over the holiday period. Most orders last week were recorded on September 13.

The average order value was about RON 55, and the highest order recorded in this range was RON 640, on Monday, 10 September.

According to foodpanda representatives, over the past year, there is a new trend, that an increasing number of parents prefer to order online food for their children, demanding that delivery be made to the school or high school where they learn. Most parents choose to order at around 11 o’clock in order for the food to be delivered during the lunch break.

”With the end of the leave and the start of the school, our client program becomes more crowded, which is why we choose to order food more frequently online. This is reflected in the volume of orders recorded in the first week of school, during which burgeries were the star. We also see a new trend among parents who choose to order online food for their children, delivered directly to school as an alternative to the home pack, ”says Radu Bălăceanu, country manager of Foodpanda Romania.

According to the company’s centralized data, the cities with the most orders registered during the reference period are Bucharest, Cluj and Timisoara.

A further increase in orders volume is estimated for the winter vacation period and half-yearly assessments when the company estimates that the number of orders will increase by over 50 percent.

foodpanda.ro is the largest online food ordering platform in Romania, currently collaborating with over 500 restaurants in Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Timisoara, Iasi, Brasov, Constanta, Arad, Ploiesti, Oradea, Galati, Craiova , Sibiu and Buzau.
