Burger King has begun testing home delivery. Testing began in the fall at four of its restaurants in the Washington, D.C. area. They are also testing three in Maryland and one in Virginia. The fast-food giant will be looking into covering a wider area. I’m not sure if that will be go off well, but they feel they have things covered.
Burger King says it developed a "proprietary thermal packaging technology." Sounds like a fancy way of saying aluminum foil, but okay. They say the packaging will enable the customer to get their Whopper hot and fresh, and their french fries are delivered hot and crispy."
I already complain if my fries are cold when they finally get to me when I am right there in the restaurant. I doubt very seriously if the fries are going be on point once they get to the customer s home. The burgers or sandwiches may travel well. On the other hand, that same time is taken when you travel from the drive thru to home. With that said maybe it will work.
Any who, during their test run, there is a $2 delivery fee and a requirement that the minimum orders are between $8 to $10. The stores try to deliver within 30 minutes of the time the order was phoned in or ordered online. They also require that customers live a 10-minute driving distance of the store. They don’t use cups for their drinks, they sell their drinks in bottles. They do not deliver breakfast and the hours are between 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
