"We hope that this co-payment scheme will help boost sales for restaurants, as well as boosting consumer spending even more for last quarter," he said. "We saw more merchant partners join GrabFood, with over 200,000 merchant partners which resulted in more transactions on the platform," Mr Osorio said. The number of food delivery orders is expected to reach 120 million this year, three times that of 2019.
