Signed, Sealed, Delivered: The Malagos Quality that You Can Trust

Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus, we’ve all been advised to go on quarantine with our families in our homes and minimize human contact. One of the biggest challenges that this created is getting food or your daily grocery supply. 

 

Because dining out is no longer considered safe or responsible in the community quarantine rules and the new normal setup, restaurants have decided to provide innovative options for pick-up and delivery services for customers who still want to enjoy their food. One of the Davao restaurants and resorts who have ventured into this new business model is Malagos Garden Resort.

 

There is little evidence to support that COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, can be transmitted through food or food packaging, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration. However, the risk can be much higher for delivery workers who have to travel and interact with people. 

 

During a pandemic like this one, risks can be everywhere and no one is completely safe. But there are several ways to mitigate those risks. If you’re still worried about your next grocery delivery or takeout, here are some good practices — both in terms of health and ethics — that we have been practicing before the pandemic and up until now.

 

Signed

They say it’s better to support a local or family-owned business since they are more likely to be hit harder by the effects of quarantine measures. A smaller business also probably means that the workers are also coming into contact with fewer people. Most of all, the overall brand equity of Malagos embedded on all of our homegrown and curated products also reassures the customers of the quality of the produce that reaches them. 

 

Sealed 

It is always better to order directly from the restaurant or grocery app; as third-party apps can charge commission fees. Aside from saving money, you also know that the food or produce that reached your doorstep was carefully prepared and delivered by one team. 

 

Malagos Garden Resort’s crowd-favorites like the Malagos Chocolate Humba and Beef Caldereta with Malagos Cheese will soon be included in the selections of fresh items that will be carefully sealed and delivered soon. They’ll be accompanied by other Malagos Garden Resort food that you can soon enjoy at home. 

 

Delivered

Avoid meeting the food courier in person. Several apps have added options to help limit in-person contact. If those options aren’t available at your favorite takeout place, you can always request (in the delivery instructions or over the phone) to have the food left on your doorstep, in the lobby, or somewhere else.

 

Your best Filipino food wouldn’t be exactly the best if you’ve had a bad delivery experience. Shop only at trusted shops like the Malagos Homegrown Produce for farm-fresh items and food that are internationally-certified. Malagos meals with US Beans will soon be available for you to order. Delight in US Dry Bean Council-Approved dishes that will surely satisfy your hunger for homegrown goodness.

 

During these challenging times, we would love to continue feeding you and your families as best we can. Homegrown deliveries are available through the Malagos Homegrown Produce website every Monday-Friday 9 AM – 5:30 PM. Malagos Microwaveable Meals and other new produce will soon be available for you to take home as well. We accept walk-in orders as well. No need to come and stay in long lines as you can give the team a call or heads up in messenger for your orders. If you want to have a meal delivered to a local friend or family member, it’s as simple as changing the delivery address on your order.
