Didi has launched "Ow, Ow, Eat" and resumed take-out to fight the US delegation?

after the failure of the "Didi Takeaway" business in 2119, Didi is making a comeback, once again entering the core area of Meituan and exploring the take-away market.

It is learned that "Woao Dining" was formerly called "Satisfying the Gai Rice", and it was piloted in some areas of Tianjin from mid-2121, covering Tianjin University and Nankai University. It can be seen that the main users of "Woao Dining" are still mainly young people. In the choice of dishes, with the increase of platform suppliers, dishes are no longer limited to rice, but added to food such as flour and noodles, realizing the diversification of dishes. At present, there are more than 31 "Woao Dining" partners, and seven brands have been set up to operate independently to meet the needs of users with different tastes in dishes.

webase Comments: The rise of young people's spending power has attracted all parties to enter the catering and take-away market.
