By GlobalData“Industry research has shown that a third of the UK population will continue to enjoy fine dining at home when restrictions ease, as the move to online for these brands has effectively ‘democratised’ top foodie experiences at the kitchen table,” said Slerp founder JP Then.
“Slerp enables the hospitality sector to create real revenues directly from customers. We are enabling brands to create a checkout interface which can be attached to their own websites, and tools to manage the growth to reduce the heavy lifting. It seamlessly manages all the logistics, including delivery, and is designed to be a stand-alone platform that can be complimentary to other services such as marketplaces. We can provide lightning speed onboarding in a day and can tailor the solution to what the business needs. It’s not a cookie cutter model and that’s important for operators as everyone has a different set up.”
