Dobar Tek Food Delivery Service Removes Plastic from Adriatic with Every Order!

August 27, 2021 - The Dobar Tek food delivery service keeps the Adriatic plastic-free with your orders!

The Dobar Tek food delivery service (dobartek.hr), the only Croatian-owned online food delivery service, is available in Šibenik, Split, Zagreb, Kaštela, Zadar, Solin, Sesvete, and Sinj. It offers more than 150 restaurants and is used by more than 100,000 registered users, reports Dalmatinski Portal

To celebrate their 8th birthday, as part of the #EnjoyOffline initiative for a #PlasticFree Adriatic, they continue to preserve the cleanliness of the Croatian Adriatic.

Last year's promise, which stated that every dobartek.hr order results in at least one plastic bottle less in the Adriatic, has been kept.

For a year now, part of the funds from dobartek.hr orders have been set aside for cleaning the coast and marine world.

Nebojša Veron, the founder of dobartek.hr, said they had collected over 35,000 kuna that will be spent as part of the initiative.

"We are immensely grateful to our customers and partner restaurants who supported the #EnjoyOffline initiative for a #PlasticFree Adriatic! Although at first glance it seems that several people who make up one food delivery service cannot make a significant difference - they certainly can! By recognizing the importance of the initiative and raising awareness of the plastic waste surrounding us, we have already made a big step towards a cleaner Adriatic. Our work is not just about that, but we have been encouraging all our restaurants in recent years to increase the use of paper packaging, and we are trying to provide them with the same," said Veron.

After last year's cleaning action of Koločep in cooperation with Maritimo Recycling, this year they will continue with ecological actions, including cleaning Žnjan in Split, Molunat in Dubrovnik, and Drvenik.

They are joined by an experienced team of divers from UPA Rostrum from Split. The association itself is already known for its highly valued and strenuous environmental actions carried out to preserve the cleanliness of the seabed and beaches. UPA Rostrum is an excellent ally in the fight against plastic waste because it brings together excellent divers, has the right infrastructure, and has extremely great knowledge of cleaning the coast and seabed.

As mentioned, dobartek.hr celebrated their 8th birthday and on that occasion announced volunteer actions of cleaning the beaches as part of the initiative #EnjoyOffline for a #PlasticFree Adriatic.

Dobar Tek Simplifies Lunch at the Office with New Ordering Service for Companies

September 30, 2019 - The Dobar Tek (dobartek.hr) platform enables fast and easy food ordering online and cooperates with more than 100 restaurants in several cities in Croatia. It is used daily by over 70,000 users.

Now, the popular online service has released a new product: Dobar Tek at work. Co-founder and CEO Nebojša Veron met with Dalmacija Danas to tell us more. 

How did the idea come about for Dobar Tek at work?

“Ordering lunch at work is generally a sweet worry. Being able to order food online enhanced this experience because it eliminated telephone orders. However, it did not solve all the potential challenges. Namely, when there are a lot of people in the office, ordering can be a bit stressful because someone has to collect all orders and then order without skipping or forgetting something. Then, all the money to pay for the food should be collected. Managing cash on the spot can be a real hassle because it also involves a lot of squabbling and remembering who owes whom. Also, it is not uncommon for someone to be accidentally forgotten or for people to miss the delivery time that would suit them best. Thus, we have prepared a solution that has three key features:

- enabling group food ordering;

- issuing monthly invoices;

- providing records of orders and expenses.

Who is the primary candidate for Dobar Tek at work?

“We have developed a solution keeping in mind the employees who will use it to facilitate their daily ordering, but also the companies that provide their employees with hot meals. We wanted to address both needs, and we succeeded. Businesses that offer meals to their employees can easily do so thanks to monthly invoices, and monthly invoices also help employees who pay for the food themselves, as there is no longer the need to pay for the order daily.

Who can apply for Dobar Tek at work?

“Companies, but also employees of companies who often order food together at the office, can apply for dobartek.hr at work. Of course, it is not necessary for the order to be made by an official representative of the company. An online solution makes it easier for businesses to do business in this segment, and employees can easily organize and report on whether or not their employer pays for a hot meal. However, we hope that this will encourage more businesses to pay for meals. We process each application immediately upon receipt and strive to meet any specific needs that companies and/or employees may have.

It should be noted that dobartek.hr is already used by several companies at work, among them HR Cloud, HR Prodigy, Profico, and Rimac Automobili. New applications have already been received in the early days of launching the product, and the service is available in all cities in which dobartek.hr operates - from Split to Zagreb.”

Marko Marinovic, head of the Dobar Tek development team, concluded:

“We created dobartek.hr at work to make it easier to order food to the office every day. Simple group orders, cost records, and more. We have targeted this for companies and teams that often order together. We continue to work on this to never leave a team hungry at work.”
