It is always inspiring to be an adviser to a new start-up, acknowledging the amount of work (and blood, sweat and tears) that has been invested by the two entreprenneurs.

 

Online food ordering is the way of the future and Irish company Takeaway.ie is leading the way. The idea is simple; one website, multiple outlets and quick simple online ordering directly to your favourite restaurant.

 

www.takeaway.ie has been live for less than a month and is already in partnership with a broad selection of food outlets including premium brands like Insomnia, Bombay Pantry and Bistro Bianconi.

 

Takeaway.ie owners Ciara Traynor and Anthony Kauffmann have recognised a niche in the Irish food market; connecting modern technology with an increasingly cosmopolitan consumer base.

As web developers they know what works on the Internet and it was through their work that they came up with the idea.

 

“We were working late one night on a project and we were starving” says Ciara Traynor. “Of course could we find a leaflet?  Anthony wanted pizza and I fancied an Indian, so we got to thinking, why isn’t there one site where all this is available?”

 

First came the idea for www.takeaway.ie. Then came the technology.

“We came up with a direct online ordering system that is user friendly for the consumer and extremely efficient for the restaurant on the receiving end”.

 

“The idea is that we are a one stop shop for ordering food nationally”, says Ciara Traynor. “Already our Dublin range of restaurants is growing and we are also delighted to have outlets in Galway, Mayo and Limerick”.

“The Irish consumer is very sophisticated and Irish food outlets recognise that. People want choice and they want quick access to it with no fuss”.

 

www.takeaway.ie currently hosts multiple food outlets; Italian, Chinese, Indian, Thai and office catering. (Quantifying is pleasantly difficult as new outlets are signing up every day).

There is no set up charge to restaurants on www.takeaway.ie, it’s free for website users.
