Grab announced that Malaysia\u2019s fastest growing food delivery service, GrabFood, will be \u2018moving back home\u2019 to Grab, the Everyday Super App. <\/span><\/p>\n

This move will see a more convenient app experience for partner restaurants and delivery partners whilst GrabFood customers no longer need to have a separate app.<\/span><\/p>\n

This milestone which is timely with GrabFood\u2019s first anniversary of delivering Malaysia’s local and favourite delicacies right into the hands of food lovers, further strengthens Grab\u2019s position as Southeast Asia\u2019s leading everyday super app.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe early days of GrabFood was challenging, but we embraced the challenges and lessons learnt. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cTogether with our partner restaurants, we organised uniquely localised campaigns like the People\u2019s Pick, BubbleTeatime and BokBokBokBuster that was aimed at delighting GrabFood customers with their favourite food, and soon, earned our way to Malaysians\u2019 hearts. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSince our launch last year, our orders have been steadily growing by 30 per cent on a monthly basis, and to-date we have completed more than two million deliveries,\u201d said Grab Malaysia country head, Sean Goh.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a testament that our food delivery service has undoubtedly provided another layer of convenience to our customer\u2019s everyday experience. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cTherefore, the move to integrate the GrabFood app with the Grab app will bring more value and opportunities to all who are part of GrabFood\u2019s ecosystem,\u201d added Sean.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sean shared that this move will have a positive three-prong effect on customers, partner restaurants and riders alike, offering an overall intuitive app experience.<\/span><\/p>\n

Firstly, customers will be spoilt for choice with more food options as since launch, the number of GrabFood partner restaurants have grown from a modest hundreds over to thousands of customers\u2019 favourite restaurants and adding to the excitement, GrabFood also welcomed other exclusive partners such as Village Park Restaurant, Humble Chef, Murni Discovery, Salad Atelier, Texas Chicken and more to its continuously growing stable of restaurants on the app.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other benefits customers will enjoy are; being able to instantly check out the latest promotions and featured restaurants on the GrabFood homescreen; Access to key information relating to restaurants upfront, such as closing times, ratings by other fellow customers and distance from the restaurants; Conveniently redeem and use GrabRewards vouchers with a simple click; Communicate with riders conveniently and for free with GrabChat to check up on order or provide special instructions like \u201cPlease ring doorbell.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Restaurant partners on the other hand, will have direct access to the millions of Grab user in Malaysia which is important especially for small and home-based establishments who prior to this, do not have the means to grow their business beyond their current store front.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWith access to a much wider customer base, they can no doubt expect more orders and whilst that may be daunting for those in the food service industry, they will have the flexibility to manage their own \u201conline restaurant.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFor example, they can opt to \u2018temporarily close\u2019 when the kitchen is busy and therefore, do not want to extend waiting time to hamper their customer\u2019s experience,\u201d said Sean.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSince launch, restaurants on GrabFood has recorded a typical 10 to 20 per cent increase in revenue. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn view of GrabFood merging into the Grab app, their deliveries are expected to increase by at least 2x, more orders for these restaurants equate to more earnings for our fleet of delivery-partners with our thousands of delivery-partners ready to deliver and serve their customers, delivery-partners are excited for the new app experience as it will give them a more autonomous view of their total earnings. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis will enable them to manage their daily expenses and savings better, and thus, have more control in building a better livelihood,\u201d Sean added.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moving into the second year, Grab will be taking the food delivery service simultaneously to other cities, namely Penang, Melaka, Johor Bahru, Kuching and Kota Kinabalu. <\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, foodies can just sit back, relax and have their favourite quick service restaurants delivered straight to them.<\/span><\/p>\n

The progressive migration of the GrabFood app into the Grab app will begin on April 17, while the GrabFood service will be rolling out in the other five cities beginning April 22.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe migration and expansion to the other cities should complete by mid May and customers can look forward to continuous updates and improvements. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe welcome feedback and suggestions from our customers, especially in our new five cities of restaurants they want to see on GrabFood,\u201dhe said.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
