ResQ Partner app – the app for reducing food waste in restaurants, cafés and grocery stores. Throwing food away is bad business. Running out of food during peak hours is also bad business. Let us help you sell your surplus food and turn it into good business! Using ResQ doesn’t take more than a few minutes a day, but can have a huge impact: many of our partners reduce their food waste by 70% and increase their revenues by 4-digits every given month using ResQ to connect with their nearby customer base. Here’s how it works: 1. Announce your surplus portions When closing your lunch or evening service for the day, you will do two things. First, you take a look at what's left over and calculate how many portions you can make out of it. Then, you publish these portions on our platform using this ResQ Partner app. 2. Consumers buy your portions with the ResQ app Once you have published the offers, customers can find them by using our mobile and web apps. Whenever a purchase is made, your orders list is updated and you receive a notification (if you want) straight to your device. 3. Hand out ordered portions Customers can come in and pick up their orders within the pickup time window you have defined. All you need to do is check the order receipt, hand out the order to the customer and mark the order as picked up in your app. Setting up your account takes no more than 15 minutes, after which you can immediately start selling your surplus food with ResQ. We will pay you for your ResQ sales once a month and provide you all the necessary receipts for your bookkeeping via email. Start having a huge impact already today!
