New Square Powered Delivery Platform
We went live yesterday with our new delivery platform powered by our POS system Square (SQ on NYSE). This new delivery platform is built into our website puregreenfranchise.com and can be accessed by going to the domain puregreen.store.
This new delivery technology completely eliminates any commissions paid to third party platforms like Seamless / Grubhub or UberEats. Our only costs for this technology is .50 cents per order. We are very excited about this new platform because our delivery business had doubled since the coronavirus this platform will not only offer our guests a better online user experience but it will help to reduce our costs associated with deliveries.
B-Corp Certification Underway
We are in the final stages of review for officially becoming a B-Corp. We applied to become a B-Corp to show Pure Green's commitment to the highest level of standards of verified social, environmental performance and public transparency.
