GrubHub, the leading online and mobile food ordering service in the US, has released its new OrderHub tablet technology for restaurants, which is designed to simplify the food ordering process.
According to the company, OrderHub enables restaurants to easily manage the thousands of new online orders they get through GrubHub.
GrubHub generates orders for restaurants by utilizing restaurant's traditional in-house technology to transmit and confirm orders: the fax and phone. Through a process developed by GrubHub, orders are faxed to restaurants, and restaurants confirm they have received orders through an automated phone service.
OrderHub, an Android native application housed on a dedicated tablet, reduces the time restaurants spend confirming orders by more than 80% and allows restaurants to provide more accurate, real-time delivery estimates to diners.
Using the new OrderHub technology, GrubHub instantaneously pushes orders to restaurants through the app, and restaurants confirm the order with a few simple taps.
Approximately 400 OrderHubs are currently deployed in the Chicago market, and GrubHub plans on rolling out thousands of OrderHub tablets to their network of more than 13,000 restaurants in more than 300 cities by the end of the year.
