Irish digital food ordering solution Flipdish has announced a new partnership with the Bewley's café on Dublin's Grafton Street.
Flipdish Statement
Flipdish stated, "With Ireland's indoor hospitality reopening remaining unclear, Irish consumers can still use Flipdish technology to order their favourite hot beverages and treats directly from Bewley's website. Bewley's, established in 1840, are Ireland's leading tea and coffee company, and Flipdish are excited to deliver this service that will operate in line with the café's opening times on a click and collect basis only during current government COVID-19 restrictions. Once indoor dining resumes, Bewley's will use QR codes, which offer digital menus on all smartphones and tablets, for table ordering. This will in turn create a more smooth running order process for consumers and staff.
"Flipdish puts restaurants, cafés, and takeaways of all sizes in control of their business growth with a digital ordering and marketing system that builds brands, grows profits and turns customers into regulars. With a branded website and app, available on both Android and iOS, Bewley's can carefully manage their brand. This technology also allows Bewley's to interact with their customers through push notifications and loyalty offers. Flipdish will also provide Bewley’s with Pixelpoint POS (point of sale) technology that sends orders directly to the till which is key for efficient operation and saves time for staff.
"Bewley's prides itself on its values of community, equality, honesty, fairness and integrity of character. Flipdish will enable Bewley's to continue its work while upholding these values on a digital space and to reconnect with their loyal and respected customers.”
Flipdish Co-Founder Statement
Flipdish co-founder James McCarthy stated, "Flipdish are delighted to be working with Bewley's, a well-known and iconic brand in this country. We are excited to see where this partnership takes us and to aid Bewley's in executing their service particularly in these unprecedented times. As Ireland begins to reopen after its third lockdown, Flipdish's priority is to provide the necessary digital tools to the hospitality industry in an effort to get them back on their feet and thriving once again. The technology that we have equipped Bewley's with allows them to take control of their brand in a new and innovative way and to fully harness the power of bringing their business online."
