As the curtains fell in 2023, foodpanda has unwrapped the gastronomic highlights of the year gone by. A beacon of convenience for late-night cravings, morning essentials, and urgent grocery needs, foodpanda has once again emerged as the preferred go-to for users across the globe. As the new year dawns, the platform is lifting the lid on the top food and grocery trends that defined 2023, offering a retrospective glimpse into the collective choices of its discerning users.
“We offer a wide variety of cuisines on the app, but we’ve seen that our customers’ top food orders have remained consistent throughout the years. In 2023, we saw many more customers try our services outside food delivery, through groceries, pickup and even parcel delivery,” according to Patricia Jacinto foodpanda Philippines Growth and Marketing Director.
The Unrivaled Supremacy of Burgers
In a world marked by constant change, there exists one steadfast truth — the burger continues to reign supreme. A perennial favorite, the burger has consistently topped foodpanda’s delivery charts for years, establishing fast food as an enduring force in both delivery and pick-up orders. The dominance of fast food extends beyond burgers, encompassing a diverse array of cuisines, with Filipino dishes and Western favorites like chicken and pizza securing their positions as the next most ordered.
Grocery Stars on the Rise
In the realm of grocery essentials, bread, and liquor emerge as the undisputed protagonists. Our unwavering love for sandwiches and toast propels bread to the forefront of pandamart’s most-ordered items, ensuring that no household is left without this kitchen staple. Meanwhile, in foodpanda Shops, liquor takes the crown, signaling a trend where users celebrate joyous occasions with a well-deserved toast.
Voucher Extravaganza
Beyond the delectable array of culinary offerings, foodpanda users were treated to a voucher extravaganza in 2023. EATNA, FPASKO, and MERIENDA stand out as the top three voucher rockstars, acting as knights in shining armor when cravings strike, and providing users with a welcome reprieve.
The Digital Payment Revolution
In a world where cash traditionally held sway, foodpanda users are rewriting the rules. The battleground of payment preferences has become a neck-and-neck race, with an increasing number of users embracing digital payments for added convenience and security.
