Single-person households saw a 31% global increase from 2010 to 2019, making it the fastest-growing household type. Nearly half of this growth occurred in the Asia-Pacific region, and the trend is projected to continue until 2040. This surge in single-person households has driven the demand for more value-for-money food delivery options. Customers placing Meal For One orders can expect to save at least 10% compared to regular meal prices, thanks to lower delivery fees and no minimum spending requirement.
The Meal For One menu can be easily accessed through a dedicated category on the app homepage, ensuring a seamless and quick ordering process. Customers can also customize their drinks and sides with simple add-ons, reducing the decision-making burden and enhancing convenience.
