Burgerville Nomad | Fast food itinerante

3772541969_5c4d308e12_o.jpg

Até pouco tempo as redes de fast food iam na contramão do movimento de sustentabilidade e refeições funcionais. Só que em 1961, o americano George Propstra inaugurou a rede Burguerville com uma visão atual e propostas ambiciosas: cardápio com alimentos orgânicos, compra de matéria-prima somente de produtores locais e a missão de transformar a empresa na primeira rede de fast food “green” dos Estados Unidos.

Novamente em busca do pioneirismo e da inovação, a mesma Burgerville inaugurou agora um projeto chamado “Burgerville Nomad“, uma espécie de fast food itinerante. São automóveis com os equipamentos necessário para levar todas as refeições fresquinhas da rede Burgeville aos moradores de até 3 grandes cidades norte-americanas.

Automóveis equipados com maquinário necessário para produzir e vender refeições rápidas é super comum, inclusive no Brasil. O que se difere aqui é ver uma grande cadeia da indústria alimentícia adquirindo este tipo de tendência.

O primeiro “food truck” da Burgerville custou cerca de USD 100.000,00 para ser construído. Em comparação com o cerca de USD 1 milhão necessário para abrir um restaurante permanente, é uma economia significativa, afirma a empresa.

Se o programa piloto for bem sucedido, mais “Burgerville Nomads” serão criados.

A cadeia começou a utilizar o seu perfil @BurgervilleUSA, do Twitter, para comunicar em que locais os “Burgerville Nomads” estão estacionados.

Essa novidade faz parte de um programa beta da empresa que está testando a nova relação custo-eficácia e o poder do buzz marketing para beneficiar a empresa. Resta saber se, com tanta alma sustentável assim, a empresa pensou em utilizar automóveis que não emitem poluentes.
