Share updates
Share important information with your customers using email, your website, Facebook Page, Instagram Business Profile or however you typically connect. You can update your business hours on your Facebook Page or let customers know about temporary service changes such as pick-up, delivery, online services or temporary closure.
Answer questions
Let customers know that they can call, email or message you with questions or to place an order.
Facebook groups
Explore small business takeaway groups in your area. Many communities are using Facebook pages as a way to surface restaurants that are open for takeaway, to connect with other restaurant owners or to share their favourite spots.
