KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 12): The tourism and aviation sectors have been badly hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, prompting low-cost carrier AirAsia to speed up its business diversification into food delivery business.
And no stranger to getting into the trenches with his staff, AirAsia Group CEO Tony Fernandes is joining the food delivery teams as shown by his social media update.
In an Instagram post today at around 9.30am, Tony is pictured beside a delivery bike carrying meals from airasia food, with the airline boss saying he is ready to deliver food to customers. The post has gone viral on social media and most people are looking forward to one of Asia's most recognisable entrepreneurs delivering food to their doorsteps.
According to airasia food website, the company started out as an initiative to support local businesses and help franchises stay afloat amidst the tough times.
“Unlike other food delivery platforms, airasia food clearly sets themselves apart with a 0% commission model, enabling merchants to power and manage their own businesses without having to pay high commission rates,” said the company.
Currently, airasia food has over 200 merchants comprising a range of local businesses and multi-chain F&B outlets, enabling them to provide delicious meals and signature dishes via airasia.com’s food ordering platform.
The delivery service is only available in Klang Valley for now.
