8 Other Food Delivery Platforms to Try If You Are Hungry For Change

Following Circuit Breaker measures and the current Phase One restrictions, getting our daily meals via takeouts and food delivery have become the new normal that we’re living in. To help cater to the growing demand for more food delivery options, new food delivery platforms have popped up offering alternative ways for you to get your meals.

While these new food delivery platforms are technically set up to offer us more range of choices, a lot of them offer a more affordable outlet for F&B merchants who were unable to sign up under the big 3 players of the food delivery industry in Singapore due to their high commission rates.

So, if you’re looking for a change in food delivery platforms aside from the popular three (Deliveroo, Foodpanda and GrabFood), here are 7 other food delivery platforms you can try.

1. BUY4U

Though they may only have a few food places available as part of their merchants list currently, Buy4U offers both local and halal food options that range from big food centres like Old Airport Road Food Centre to small neighbourhood coffee shops like 89.7 Changi Supper Club. They’ve even got a frozen food section for you to get ingredients if you’re looking to cook a meal.
