Hanover’s Perspective
Hanover County Takeout App Offered by Hanover Digital Marketing Agency
Finding takeout just became easier with a mobile app facilitated by Hanover resident and business owner, Rick Whittington. As local restaurants and beverage establishments have been forced to quickly shift their business models to match the current demand for “shelter in place” eating and drinking experiences, their innovation to provide takeout, drive through and delivery options has been nothing short of outstanding.
As a Hanover business owner specializing in digital marketing, Rick provided the app as a quick, easy and cost-free solution to compliment Hanover Economic Development’s efforts to support the county’s restaurants and beverage establishments.
Unlike many other small businesses, cash flow for restaurants is completely dependent on current business. “I have friends that are restaurant owners, and there are places I usually frequent that I want to help in a time of need. Hanover County published a comprehensive list of restaurants offering takeout and delivery, so I decided to take it a step further and create an app. Hopefully this will broaden awareness and help these local businesses,” said Rick.
