“We believe the addition of curbside pickup will provide additional peace of mind for our customers to safely access our offerings, as curbside service is seen as one of the safest ways to access food off-premise.”
- Bernard Acoca, CEO, El Pollo Loco
“The Flybuy platform gives our hosts a new level of visibility into a guest’s journey to our store which is significantly decreasing wait times at pickup.
