2020, Nakhon Pathom Rajabhat University

Abstract

In this fast-moving world, online food delivery service (OFDS) has become a convenient platform since it allows application users to enjoy their food without wasting time on meal sourcing and buying. Millennials are considered as the biggest customer group of this service (Nguyen, 2019). In Thailand, the applications of ordering food are becoming more popular, and GrabFood is voted to be the most preferred brand in the industry (Leesa-Nguansuk, 2019). However, the data related to the OFDS and customers' satisfaction towards the services are limited. Knowing customers' opinions regarding their experiences with the service is essential for both service providers and restaurant owners because it would enable them to know where their paths lie ahead. Therefore, this study aimed at investigating satisfaction of the millennial customers towards GrabFood in Bangkok. Four hundred and twenty-one millennials who experienced GrabFood service in Bangkok participated in this study. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed through an online channel, and the interview was conducted. The finding showed that a majority of the millennials were satisfied with this service provider. Their satisfying experiences were derived from preciseness of delivered food, courtesy of staff, user-friendly application, reasonable delivery rates, respectively. However, in order to improve the service performance and enhance the customer experience, it is suggested that GrabFood should accurate users' location on its application, illustrate food with photos, and update restaurant service hours.
