The term Grab and Go emerged in the United States and soon expanded around the world until arriving here in Brazil, several years ago. However, what actually boosted the growth of this model was the Covid-19 pandemic.
But what does this system really consist of?
In the Grab and Go system, ready-to-eat foods are already displayed, portioned and packaged, ready to be chosen and consumed. This makes this system very practical, allowing people to choose their meals, which are already ready and at the correct consumption temperature, to take and eat wherever they want.
The Covid-19 pandemic spurred the implementation of this type of operation, mainly because packaged food seemed less vulnerable to contamination. In addition, as it was not allowed to remove the mask in public places, many people began to look for food to be consumed at home. With the Grab and Go system, it is not necessary to have tables or chairs to welcome the customer, everything is as digitalized as possible to avoid too much contact or loss of time. The customer comes, chooses what he wants to take, pays and goes on his way quickly.
This system can be easily found in markets, supermarkets, convenience stores and bakeries. However, now it is also being adopted by restaurants, as a complement to the traditional service. Thus, it is possible to serve audiences with different demands.
What are the benefits of using this system?
For the customer, there is much more agility and convenience. For the company that uses it, we can cite some advantages such as attracting new customers, less waste of ingredients, the possibility of working at alternative times, in addition to the fact that there is no need to increase the number of employees.
