Once reserved for a cozy night in watching Netflix or a long day at the office, delivery from our favorite restaurants – along with virtual gatherings and the news – has become our critical lifeline to the outside world. While we are busy trying to get our families fed and lift our spirits with cocktail and wine deliveries, these businesses are not only trying to nourish us, but to stay open and keep as many employees on the payroll as possible during COVID-19 restrictions.
While restaurants are facing collective losses in the billions, according to a recent survey from TopCashback.com, 35 percent of Americans are ordering more food for takeout and delivery than they were a month ago. “We are seeing a big increase in to-go orders, which includes our contactless pickup and delivery,” SUGARFISH Co-Founder Lele Massimini told the Courier.
