“We are committed to support food establishments that remain in continuous operations. We will support continuous flow of goods to serve the essential needs of Filipinos.

“Delivery-partners are advised to prioritize safety beyond all costs.

“We will continue to exercise strict safety measures such as contactless delivery, temperature checks, increased cleaning frequency of delivery-bags, on top of other measures in cooperation with our partner restaurants.

“As we continue to ramp up service availability, we ask for your patience as deliveries could take a bit longer given the situation.

“All Grab transport services remain temporarily suspended.

“Let’s all work together to stay safe and #FlattenTheCurve!”

However, customers are encouraged to switch to online payment modes to reduce physical contact, among other safety measures.
