The concept of takeout first originated in China, but there is no specific person who can be called the inventor of takeout.

In China, takeout services originated in the late 1990s and were first started by some small restaurants or night market vendors. With the development of the Internet and the popularization of mobile payments, takeaway services have gradually grown and become a huge success in China.

Now, China's takeaway market has become one of the largest in the world, and has produced some well-known takeaway platforms, such as Hungry, Meituan Takeaway and so on.

And in other countries, takeaway services have developed similarly, but there is no clear answer as to who exactly invented takeaway services. The rise of takeaway services is mainly due to technological advances and changes in people's lifestyles, which have made takeaway a convenient and fast dining option.
