LOCAL FOOD DELIVERY
BUSINESS
Highlighting Local Businesses
BY CHI CHENG
VER GET A HANKERING for something
other than the standard pizza or Chinese food
delivery? Find yourself frazzled on a Wednesday
night with no plans for dinner, a hungry family
and you just want to go home and relax? Then,
Clickfood is for you my friends. Clickfood is a local
business offering meal delivery to the residents of
Ripon, with an ultimate goal of expanding their service
area to include Manteca, Modesto and Salida.
“Food delivery is not new in major cities.
Unfortunately, smaller cities are ignored, and we
want to change that,” said Alejandro Marin, co-CEO of
Clickfood. He was inspired, along with partner Cristian
Patino, by a project in Bible College. The goal of the
project was to create a business with the funds avaliable
to the students. Thus, Clickfood was born.
Though delivery service is only available to
residents of Ripon, orders can be placed with any
restaurant in Ripon, Manteca, Salida or Modesto.
Because the company operates on a schedule basis, it
is important to call ahead or check availability online.
An added advantage of this model, is for large events
or business lunches, you can book with Clickfood up
to two months in advance. Delivery fee is based on
amount of food ordered and distance.
“I hope I can provide a service to my local
town of Ripon and make peoples lives that much easier.
Whether you are a single parent or elderly and eating
out has become too much of a strain, CLickfood makes
it possible to have restaurant quality food from the
comfort of your own home,” stated Marin. So, next
time you want to enjoy hamburgers or suchi (or both!)
from the comfort of your PJ’s, give Clickfood a call and
support local business!
