Recommendation for a food delivery app
Abstract.
Currently, the wind of technology has swept across many parts of the world. Most of the
activities are carried out with the help of advanced machines and technologies. The restaurant
industry has made several advancements some of which include delivery of meals through online
using particular food delivery applications (Al Abid & Karim, 2017). According to research, the
current online food delivery application is not able to meet the requirements of some of its
customers. For example, the current food delivery application lacks significant features like the
ingredients using preparing a particular meal. As a result, most people are not able to determine
the ingredients contained in meals which they order.
Of important to note, if the above mentioned problem is corrected, the restaurant industry
will be at the forefront in offering outstanding services. This will come along with a lot of
advantages which include several job opportunities, increased revenue income for not only the
restaurant industry but also technology industry. As a result, these two industries are able to
achieve some of its goals without difficulties. If ABC Technology company use these
suggestions to improve the current food delivery app, they can achieve bigger market and profits.

Introduction.
In consideration of the current food delivery applications used by various restaurants and
hotels are not able to meet requirements for the elderly who don’t have enough time or abilities
to prepare meals. It’s essential to create a food delivery application which can be able to meet all
the conditions. It will bring several advantages which include the provision of services that will
fully satisfy the needs of all the customers irrespective of the age, gender, and even disability.
Everyone can access to the provision of excellent services by this particular food delivery app. It
will also enable the restaurant industry to blossom and flourish in the market and technology
industry can acquire more market. It will bring more profits to these industries that will enable
them to achieve some of their goals and targets comfortably. In the long run, this will play a
significant role in uplifting the whole economy of a particular country. Therefore, solving issues
discussed above will lead to the growth and development of very many sectors in the economy.
Hence, ABC Technology should develop a food delivery app that meets the needs of the
elderly customers. The app should be designed explicitly for the elderly because they face
myriad of challenges in accessing quality food supplies. The food delivery application will allow
elderly customers to make healthy choices and get access to better food supplies (Dunford et al.,
2014). The food delivery app will make ABC Technology a unique restaurant since many hotels,
and food joints have not developed specific strategies that aim at providing for the needs of
elderly customers.

The food delivery app would allow ABC Technology to stand out among its competitors.
Many customers would consider the firm commitment to build itself as a technology company
and other areas that relate to business. In many societies, the elderly often feel that they have
been neglected. This application will play a leading role in restoring hope among the elderly
population and making them feel loved by the rest of the community (McClements, 2015).
The elderly population is in need of special diets, and the development of this application
will help in sorting out their dietary needs. This application will ensure the timely delivery of
food to the elderly at their convenience. The will be able to request specific diets from the hotels
and restaurants that are close to their areas of residence.
The development of a food delivery app will allow ABC Technology to build its
reputation in the industry and gain a competitive advantage in the industry. The application will
allow many elderly populaces to identify with the firm because it contains features that would
enable the disabled elders to make orders at their convenience. Furthermore, the cost of living
will drop significantly for the families of the elderly families because they will not be compelled
to employ caretakers. Besides, they will be relieved of the hustles involved in looking for a
special diet for the elderly.
Discussion/ Recommendation.
The proposed food delivery application will play a great role in ensuring that the elderly
people in society are sufficiently taken care of. It will be achieved by ensuring that the elderly
people are served with the meals at their own convenient places (Al Abid & Karim, 2017).
However, the above-mentioned contents will come along with several advantages some of which
include minimizing problems created by the elderly when moving from one region to the other.

Consequently, the food delivery application will contain various special features that will enable
elderly with disability also can access similar services using a similar food delivery application.
There is no society that lacks the elderly without or with disabilities (McClements, 2015).
Therefore, it's important to have their needs taken care off so that they can also feel loved and
taken care off in the society. The improvement of the food delivery application will also help
reduce the dangerous satiation happen by keeping elderly at their safe place, like home. The
probability danger of the elderly like falling down will decrease greatly in a familiar
environment. Moreover, the proposed food delivery application will be indicating its main areas
or regions of operation to provide a timely service for the elderly. This factor will enable the
elderly to request for the services from the restaurants and hotels which are close to their areas of
residence (Dunford, E., Trevena, H., Goodsell, C., Ng, K. H., Webster, J., Millis, A., ... & Neal,
B, 2014). As a result, it will be easier and convenient for the company to deliver placed orders
within the shortest time possible. It will play a significant role in ensuring that trust is achieved
between the customers and the application. Besides, it will be easier for the elderly to get their
meals served urgently within a short time. In return, this will be key factor to increase the
number of customers to the company. More importantly, the company will be able to build a
good reputation that will helps it to attain most of its long-term functional goals and targets.
Unlike the other ordinary food delivery applications, this particular proposed food delivery
application will contain features that will help the elderly with various disabilities in the society
to use it comfortably.
The proposed food delivery application will help the elderly’s family save living cost.
With the gradually accelerating life rhythm, the earner in family have more and more work stress
to earn money by doing their jobs. Hence, their time spend on family, on their parents and child

become less and less. This will cause the extra cost on care person and old people’s home. Once
ABC technology company creates a new, complete and convenient food delivery app, they will
no longer need to hire elderly care person to take care of their old parents and provide meals for
them while at home which would cost almost $18,000 per year. On the other hand, if elderly’s
children would like to send them to old people’s home, they also need to cost a lot, which range
from $60,000 to $120,000, it is just for the entrance fee. They also need to pay a monthly fee,
which is from $500 to $3,000. Most of normal family cannot afford this huge amount of money
cost. For the elderly, ABC Technology company will provide a proper discount to them expect
the fee of food and delivery fee, there will be no other fees be asked. The company will use a
transparent charge system, any additional fees are not allowed. By doing this, the company will
also attract more customers to use the proposed application, no matter the elderly or normal
working people. The above-mentioned problem will be solved by the proposed food delivery
application because all the services fee will be included in the app.
The proposed food delivery application will be keen in partnering with hotels and
restaurants that have qualified chefs who prepare meals that contain a well-balanced diet. Thus,
the meals supplied and delivered using this particular application will contribute greatly to
making people’s lives healthier (McClements, 2015). The role of the ABC technology company
will be ensuring that the hotels and restaurants seeking to partner with them have a reputation in
the provision of meals that contain a well-balanced diet. By doing this, the company will be able
to achieve its dream of ensuring that meals offered to their customers play a role in making their
lives healthier. The first main target market of ABC Technology is the elderly, there are many
ingredients and spices are very dangerous for them. If the elderly eats something are not suitable
for them. The gastrointestinal system of the elderly is not as strong as the youth, they need to

know what they eat for each meal every day to keep them in a healthy and safe condition. The
proposed food delivery application provides the function of detailed ingredients of the food
which current food delivery app don’t have. This is an important factor that will enable the
company to acquire as many customers as possible. Therefore, if the company ensures that the
above-mentioned is strictly taken into consideration, then the food delivery application will be in
a position getting as many customers as possible. Quality of meals prepared, and the detailed
ingredients list are key in determining the number of customers that particular business
opportunity is likely to get.
The other essential item that will be contained in the proposed food delivery application
is the whole day working time. The proposed application unlike the other ordinary food delivery
applications in various regions, this particular application will be operating within twenty-four
hours in seven days a week. It will play a great role in ensuring that all the customers are served
according to their satisfaction. This will provide an opportunity for the customers who work at
night to also have the chance of getting magnificent services that will be provided by the
proposed food delivery application. Most importantly, this will enable various hotels and
restaurants that will be partnering with the company to increase its volume of sale during the late
hours. As a result, the hotels and restaurants, and also the ABC technology company will be able
to achieve huge amounts of profits that will enable them to run their day to day activities easily
and conveniently.
