Online marketplace Evaly has recently started taking orders for Gloria Jean's Coffees and Best Fried Chicken (BFC) and delivering those through its Evaly Food Express (e-food). 

Customers of the capital's Gulshan will get deliveries from the coffeehouse chain's Gulshan 1 and 2 outlets while of Dhanmondi from that area's outlet, according to a statement.

The BFC's customers will get deliveries from its 17 branches across the capital.

Shamima Nasrin, chairman of Evaly, signed agreements in this regard with FM Murshed Elahy, head of business at Navana Foods, a Bangladesh franchisee of the Australia-based coffeehouse chain, and Ashraf Ud Dowlah, the BFC's consultant.

"People should stay home as much as possible at this time. However, the culture of taking food together with the family is also an important means of entertainment for food-loving Bangalees," said Nasrin.

Evaly is working hard to provide that service to customers through "contactless" food delivery while ensuring proper health care, she said.

"With the addition of these two companies, the list of mouthwatering foods available though Evaly has been enriched," she added.

The signing ceremonies were attended by Mohammad Rassel, managing director and chief executive officer of Evaly.
