SEOUL, Nov. 10 (Korea Bizwire)Restaurants in Seoul’s Gangnam district will be engaged in a trial program to use multi-use boxes, instead of single-use ones, for food deliveries upon consumer request.

Customers will be able to order food in a multi-use package at some 60 restaurants in the district using the delivery app Yogiyo.

Selecting ‘multi-use box (1,000 won, US$0.85)’ upon ordering, consumers will receive food in a stainless steel box instead of a single-use plastic package.

Scanning a QR code printed on the multi-use container with a smartphone camera will take the consumers to a website where they can be returned.

Once the online registration is complete and the multi-use boxes are left on the doorstep, a professional cleaning company will pick them up, wash and sterilize them and take them back to the restaurant.
