Company mission
To help diners to discover new and exquisite dishes, and to give traditional mom-and-pop restaurants a fighting chance to succeed without compromising who they truly are.
Our take
Originally founded to expand the customer base of “mom and pop” Asian food restaurants, Chowbus has grown to become a delivery, pickup, and point-of-sale technology company. By evolving its services, it has weathered the customer drought of COVID-19.
Chowbus’s POS technology claims to save business owners up to $8000 a month in labour costs whilst enabling businesses to grow by around 25%. Its takeaway app provides customers with a way to select food from various restaurants in one order, a novel concept that differentiates the company from large competitors.
Its focus on Asian food provides Chowbus with a unique identity within the market, and its acquisition by Fantuan, an Asian food-focused marketplace based in Canada will aid Chowbus’s growth intentions.
