“We created this feature to respond to our loyal customers’ needs, especially those who are in long-distance relationships, as this food delivery service can be used in different cities, provinces and even islands,” Go-Food's marketing vice president Aristo Kristandyo said in an official statement.

The feature is also perceived as an innovation to widen the scope of Go-Food’s merchant partners.

" […] So far, Go-Food has teamed up with almost 400,000 merchant partners, 80 percent of which are small business enterprises. Through this ongoing technology development, we wish to continue supporting culinary businesses, hence Go-Jek can serve as a strategic business enabler to all our ecosystem,” said Aristo. (wir/kes)
