INTRODUCTION
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION:
Customer satisfaction (often abbreviated as CSAT) is a term frequently used in marketing. It is
a measure of how products and services supplied by a company meet or surpass customer
expectation. Customer satisfaction is defined as "the number of customers, or percentage of total
customers, whose reported experience with a firm, its products, or its services (ratings) exceeds
specified satisfaction goals”.
1. "Within organizations, the collection, analysis and dissemination of these data send a
message about the importance of tending to customers and ensuring that they have a
positive experience with the company's goods and services."
2. "Although sales or market share can indicate how well a firm is performing currently,
satisfaction is perhaps the best indicator of how likely it is that the firm’s customers will
make further purchases in the future. Much research has focused on the relationship
between customer satisfaction and retention. Studies indicate that the ramifications of
satisfaction are most strongly realized at the extremes."

1. A Loyal customer is a treasure you should keep and hide from the world,
2. They can stop being your clients in a heartbeat,
4. Customer satisfaction is a factor that helps you stand out of the competition,
INDUSTRY PROFILE:-
One of such business that the internet introduced is an online food ordering system. In today’s
age of fast food and take out, many restaurants have chosen to focus on quick preparation and
speedy delivery of orders rather than offering a rich dining experience. Until recently, most of
this delivery orders were placed over the phone, but there are many disadvantages to this system.
It is possible for anybody to order any goods via the internet and have the goods delivered at
his/her doorsteps. But while trying to discuss the transfer method of the goods and services,
attention is focused on the payment mode. In other words, how possible is it to pay for goods and
services via the internet? This then leads to the discussion of the economic consequences of
digital cash. What are the implementations from the view point of economic? Since the world is
fast becoming a global village, the necessary tool for this process is communication of which
telecommunication is a key player.
A major breakthrough is the wireless 2 telephone system which comes in either fixed wireless
telephone lines or the Global System of Mobile communication (GSM). What I propose is an
online ordering system originally designed for use in college cafeterias, but just as applicable in
any food delivery industry. The main advantage of this system is that it greatly simplifies the
ordering process for both the customer and the restaurant.
The system also greatly lightens the load on the restaurants end, as the entire process of taking
orders is automated. Once an order is placed on the webpage that will be designed, it is placed
into the database and then retrieved, in pretty much real-time, by a desktop application on the
restaurants end. Within this application, all items in the order are displayed, along with their
corresponding options and delivery details, in a concise and easy to read manner. This allows the
restaurant employees to quickly go through the orders as they are placed and produce the
necessary items with minimal delay and confusion. The greatest advantage of this system is its
flexibility.
Due to the great increase in the awareness of internet and the technologies associated with it,
several opportunities are coming up on the web. So many businesses and companies now venture
into their business with ease because of the internet.
The “Online food ordering system” has been developed to over ride the problems prevailing in
the practicing manual system. This software is supported to eliminate and in some cases reduce
the hardships faced by this existing system. Moreover this system is designed for the particular
need of the company to carry out operations in a smooth and effective manner.
The application is reduced as much as possible to avoid errors while entering the data. It also
provides error message while entering data. No formal knowledge is needed for the user to use
this system. Thus by this all it proves it is user friendly online food ordering system, as described
above, can lead to error free, secure, reliable and fast management system. It can assist the user
to concentrate on the record keeping. Thus it will help organization in better utilization of
resources.
Every organization, whether big or small, has challenges to overcome and managing the
information of the organization of category, food item, order, delivery, customer. Every online
food ordering has the different food item needs and therefore we design exclusive employee
management systems that are adapted to your managerial requirements. This is designed to assist
in strategic planning, and will help you to ensure that your organization is equipped with the
right level of the information and details for your future goals. Also, for those busy executives
who are always on the go, our systems come with remote access features, which will allow you
to manage your workforce anytime, at all times. These systems will ultimately allow you to
better manage resources.
The first online food order was a pizza from Pizza Hut in 1994. The online food ordering market
has increased in the U.S with 40 percent of U.S adults having ordered their food online once.The
online food ordering market includes foods prepared by restaurants, prepared by independent
people, and groceries being ordered online and then picked up or delivered.
The first online food ordering service, World Wide Waiter (now known as Waiter.com), was
founded in 1995.The site originally serviced only northern California, later expanding to several
additional cities in the United States.
GrubHub was founded in 2004.
By the late 2000s, major pizza chains had created their own mobile applications and started
doing 20-30 percent of their business online. With increased smart phone penetration, and the
growth of both Uber and the sharing economy, food delivery startups started to receive more
attention. In 2010, Snap finger, who is a multi-restaurant ordering website, had a growth in their
mobile food orders by 17 percent in one year.
Instacart was founded in 2012. In 2013, Seamless and Grubhub merged. Uber Eats launched in
Los Angeles, California in 2014. By 2015, online ordering began overtaking phone ordering.
In 2015, China's online food ordering and delivery market grew from 0.15 billion Yuan to 44.25
billion Yuan.
As of September 2016, online delivery accounted for about 3 percent of the 61 billion U.S.
restaurant transactions.
ONLINE FOOD ORDERING SYSTEM IN INDIA:
India’s online food ordering sector saw a strong growth rate in the number of daily orders,
growing consistently at 15 per cent on a quarterly basis from January to September last year,
according to a report from RedSeer Consulting.
The growth has resulted in the number of orders on a daily basis clocking an average of 400,000
during the September quarter. It has also meant players, including Swiggy, Zomato and
Foodpanda, are investing in in-sourcing deliveries.
In the September quarter, self-deliveries grew to 56 per cent of the total number of orders done
by the food-tech sector in India. In-house deliveries stood at 46 per cent in the fourth quarter of
2016.
“It is becoming increasingly clear that food tech is more and more of a logistics play, restaurant
discovery is not a deep competitive advantage. There are clear trends on customer and seller
satisfaction supported by the better delivery speed and compliance that vouch for superiority of
the captive delivery model in Indian market,” said Anil Kumar, founder and chief executive
officer, RedSeer.
Having a better control of their deliver fleets, food ordering platforms were able to bring down
the average time taken to deliver a meal from 47 minutes in the December quarter of 2016 to 42
minutes in the September quarter in 2017. This number is expected to grow as food tech players
look to boost customer satisfaction and have them order more meals.
Swiggy, one of the leading players, has in-sourced deliveries since its inception and continues to
process 100 per cent of deliveries.
Zomato, which started off as a restaurant discovery platform and turned to online food ordering,
acquired Runner, a hyperlocal logistics firm in order to boost its own in-house delivery arm.
The growth in 2018 is expected to continue at the same pace. However, Ola, India's largest taxi-
hailing firm, buying Foodpanda could upset the market. Ola has said it would invest $200
million into Foodpanda over the next few years, creating a scare that there could be a price war
in the food-tech space again.
Currently, players such as Swiggy and Zomato have managed to maintain the growth despite
charging delivery fees for small-ticket deliveries. Experts and industry watchers say the model of
delivering food from restaurants, which is ordered online has been proven, even if there’s some
way to go for firms in the space to begin making profits.
This also puts the sector at risk from being invaded by players with deep pockets, who splurge
huge amounts of money to grab market share and fend off rivals in the hope that they'll be able to
turn profitable someday.

HISTORY OF SWIGGY:
In 2013 two founders, Sriharsha Majety and Nandan Reddy, designed an e-
commerce website called "Bundl" to facilitate courier service and ship goods within
India.[8] Bundl was quickly paused, and they moved into the food delivery market. At
the time, the food delivery sector was in turmoil as several notable startups, such
as Foodpanda(later acquired by Ola Cabs), TinyOwl (later acquired by Zomato) and
Ola Cafe (later closed) were struggling. Majety and Reddy approached Rahul
Jaimini, formerly with Myntra and founded Swiggy and parent holding company
Bundl Technologies in 2014. The company built out a dedicated delivery network
and grew rapidly, primarily driven by the focus on logistics and locking in key
resources.
