The shopping experience has become even more convenient with the rise of virtual brands and ghost kitchens. <\/p>    <p>One restaurant group in Chile, for example, has launched a digital market where consumers can purchase their most popular menu items (hotdogs, burgers, barbecue and snacks) to cook at home. In Indonesia, a Taiwanese caf\u00e9 offers ready-to-cook family-style portions of traditional dishes alongside their carryout menu. And in China, a popular hot pot chain sells its broth bases in packaged formats for consumers to experience from the comfort of their home.<\/p>    <p>Operators continue to make dining more convenient and safe for guests, offering curbside pickup, dedicated walk-up windows and seamless digital ordering. Of course, with reliance on carryout and delivery comes the need for tamper-proof packaging that\u2019s lightweight yet durable, affordable and environmentally friendly. An Egyptian startup is working to connect consumers to local fruit and vegetable vendors via WhatsApp, with deliveries packed in paper to minimize plastic waste. Innovation in the \u201cplant-based packaging\u201d space may uncover new solutions that maintain the integrity of delivery dishes while demonstrating an operator\u2019s commitment to sustainability.<\/p>    <div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/griffithfoods.com\/na\/en-CA\/viewpoints\/enhance-qsr-takeout-and-delivery\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/griffithfoods.com\/na\/wp-content\/themes\/griffithfoods\/build\/images\/dummy.svg\" alt=\"64 percent of consumers avoid ordering foods they like because quality deteriorates during delivery.\" class=\"wp-image-3336 lozad\" width=\"1024\" height=\"346\" data-src=\"https:\/\/griffithfoods.com\/na\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/04\/avoid-ordering-foods-1024x346.png\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>    <hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>    <hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>    <script src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.com\/embed\/medias\/xubv85jv7p.jsonp\" async=\"\"><\/script><script src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.com\/assets\/external\/E-v1.js\" async=\"\"><\/script><div class=\"wistia_responsive_padding\" style=\"padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;\"><div class=\"wistia_responsive_wrapper\" style=\"height:100%;left:0;position:absolute;top:0;width:100%;\"><div class=\"wistia_embed wistia_async_xubv85jv7p videoFoam=true\" style=\"height:100%;position:relative;width:100%\"><div class=\"wistia_swatch\" style=\"height:100%;left:0;opacity:0;overflow:hidden;position:absolute;top:0;transition:opacity 200ms;width:100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/griffithfoods.com\/na\/wp-content\/themes\/griffithfoods\/build\/images\/dummy.svg\" style=\"filter:blur(5px);height:100%;object-fit:contain;width:100%;\" alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" onload=\"this.parentNode.style.opacity=1;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.com\/embed\/medias\/xubv85jv7p\/swatch\" class=\"lozad\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>    <p class=\"has-text-align-center has-normal-font-size\">When it comes to delivery, packaging solutions and portability, attention to detail is everything.
