QuickBite
Fast Food Delivery Connecting Restaurants with Hungry Customers
Project Overview
QuickBite is Africa's most user-friendly food delivery platform, connecting thousands of restaurants with millions of hungry customers across major cities. The platform features smart restaurant discovery with AI recommendations, real-time order tracking with GPS, multiple payment options including cash and mobile money, loyalty rewards program, group ordering for offices, and scheduled deliveries. With features like live order updates, driver rating system, restaurant reviews, and special dietary filters, QuickBite makes food delivery seamless, reliable, and enjoyable.
The Challenge
Food delivery in Africa faced significant challenges: unreliable delivery times, limited restaurant options, high commission fees hurting small businesses, payment difficulties, inaccurate addresses causing failed deliveries, language barriers, and lack of trust in online ordering. Both restaurants and customers were frustrated with existing solutions.
Our Solution
QuickBite built a comprehensive ecosystem: smart restaurant recommendation based on preferences and order history, accurate real-time tracking with driver location and ETA, flexible payment options (cash, M-Pesa, cards), what3words integration for precise addressing, restaurant dashboard with order management, fair commission structure for small restaurants, group ordering with split payments, scheduled orders for meal planning, and robust customer support with live chat.
