Transparency is a huge operational benefit in today's foodservice trends. Consumers want to know how the businesses they're spending money on is helping the environment, as well as how it showcases what's being produced. They want to know what steps restaurants and cafeterias are taking to be more sustainable, and how spending money there is, in turn, 'giving back' to the community. This form of transparency makes them feel as if they're helping out with going green.

Life can be fast-paced, whether you're running a foodservice operation, or the one ordering food from that operation. Thankfully, technology helps us make ordering and serving a little easier. Many restaurants are adding the option of online ordering as a service, and some are even creating their own app to make things easier. Additionally, online delivery is becoming a popular convenience for consumers in major cities worldwide. From restaurants creating their own apps to businesses specifically made into personal delivery services, the future is online.
