Flybuy provides a fast, efficient, and supercharged program for Cafe Rio Mexican Grill's carryout orders.
WASHINGTON, April 26, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Cafe Rio Mexican Grill, a rapidly growing fresh Mexican cuisine restaurant with 144 locations nationwide (with 15 more opening this year), has fully integrated Flybuy Pickup into their mobile app to create a completely seamless customer and staff experience. Flybuy Pickup, a product within the Radius Networks Flybuy Platform, is leveraged by brands worldwide for in-store and curbside pickup optimization.
"We are really excited to add an iconic brand like Cafe Rio to the Flybuy family," says Jeff Baskin, Chief Business Officer at Radius Networks. "It has been great to work with Todd Paladini and his team to implement the Flybuy solution to not only create labor efficiencies in the restaurant, but also develop a best-in-class pickup experience for their loyal customers."
When customers place pickup orders and head to the restaurant, Flybuy Pickup provides staff with an accurate customer ETA and alerts them when the customer is arriving and where they park for pickup. Flybuy's location technology allows the staff to juggle both dine-in customers and those coming in for pickup, as they can proactively prepare orders based on exact arrival time. The addition of Flybuy has enabled Cafe Rio to replicate the dine-in experience with fresh, hot orders handed off immediately upon arrival.
With the rise in takeout and delivery orders, Cafe Rio knew they needed a system that sets them up for success now and in the future. With Flybuy, Cafe Rio can eliminate frustrations and confusion for customers, staff, as well as incoming delivery drivers.
"In just weeks after implementing Flybuy, without any marketing efforts, we've seen our curbside orders jump 6%," says Patrick Miller, IT Project Manager at Cafe Rio Mexican Grill. "Being able to maintain the volume of dine-in customers while growing our off-premise customer base is having a great impact on our bottom line, and we're excited to see what's next!"
Cafe Rio's customers are loving the new curbside experience:
- "Nate came right to my car as soon as I pulled up, the food was hot and the service was fantastic!!"
- "Super fast getting the order out to my car! Thanks again!"
"It has been a smooth process from the start with Flybuy. We are able to get really granular with our precision along the customer's journey, as well as on property. Each restaurant has their own customized virtual pickup zones within the parking lot so we know exactly where the customer is on-property when they arrive. We also took advantage of utilizing the Flybuy Tablets at every restaurant with audio and visual alerts so every employee is engaged with the program at all times," says Todd Paladini, Chief Technology Officer at Cafe Rio Mexican Grill.
Flybuy is currently rolled out at over 116 Cafe Rio locations and will be fully rolled out to all 144 restaurants by the end of the month.
