The Negotiation Process for Robot Delivery Food in Restaurant
- Customer Acquisition Channel: This French customer met the Foodline brand through AliExpress. The customer, who owns three French chain restaurants, had trouble in staff shortages for front-of-house delivery and slow service during peak hours. They proactively left their contact information to inquire about intelligent delivery solutions.
- Initial Detail Communication: During the initial contact, the customer raised several customization questions regarding localized needs in their French stores, such as narrow aisle layouts, multi-table zoned delivery, and bilingual voice announcements. Our technical team, considering the European restaurant environment, provided a robot path planning solution adapted to the store’s traffic flow, and simultaneously sent sample test videos and local European implementation examples.
- Order Confirmation: After two rounds of online sample demonstrations and parameter adjustments, the customer placed a small trial order for 5 food delivery bots. After a one-month trial run in their French stores, they placed a bulk purchase order. The equipment was shipped directly from China to their Paris stores after customs clearance, and on-site debugging was completed.
Customer Feedback on Automated Food Delivery Robot
- Efficiency Improvement: During peak hours, an autonomous food delivery robot can deliver multiple meals at a time, replacing the workload of waiters. Average food delivery time in stores has been reduced by 42%, and table turnover rate during evening peak hours has increased by 28% month-on-month.
- Labor Cost Savings: After implementation, stores have reduced two full-time food delivery positions, directly saving a significant amount on annual wages and social security expenses, greatly alleviating the problem of high labor costs in France.
- Equipment Stability: After six consecutive months of 24/7 operation, the robot’s failure rate is less than 1%. It features bilingual (French and English) interactive announcements, making it easy for both waiters and customers to use. Customers’ enthusiasm for the automatic food delivery robot has led to a slight increase in store traffic.
