Your Deli Is Losing to Sandwich Chains—Here’s How One Grocer Flipped the Script

During a recent operational review, a $20M grocery chain owner validated everything we've been warning about the industry's technology gap.
‍

"My deli counter serves 20 customers per hour while the sandwich chain next door processes 100+ mobile orders at the same time. They're eating our lunch with better ordering technology."

🔻Yet 69% of grocers use manual processes while food chains build billion-dollar businesses on customization.

‍

Who is winning? Chains, with simple automated ordering.

What takes major food chains YEARS to perfect, this store owner deployed in days with the LocalExpress “Made To Order”(MTO) capability.
‍

The result? These stores now process 650+ custom orders daily:

✅ Build-your-own everything - sandwiches, salads, hot meals, custom cakes

✅ Orders flow directly to kitchen - zero human error

✅ Works across website, app, kiosks, AND in - storeCustomers now actively seek out customization options.

‍

"We transformed from losing customers to efficiently processing custom orders."
