Teenage entrepreneurs Nat Turner, Adam Parker, and
Zach Weinberg have taken time away from their schedule
at the prestigious Wharton School at the University of
Pennsylvania to announce the launch of EatNow.com, a new
website designed to help consumers browse local
restaurant menus and place orders over the internet.
EatNow.com offers consumers unprecedented menu variety,
offering more restaurant choices than its competitors in
every one of its current markets.
Turner, Parker and Weinberg all met during freshman year
at Wharton. They began discussing business opportunities
in early February and created EatNow.com in April.
During their first meeting the trio developed an
advanced GPS matching algorithm allowing EatNow.com to
pinpoint exactly which restaurants will deliver to a
specific address based on latitude and longitude
coordinates. The young entrepreneurs then moved towards
collecting participating restaurants in different
cities, traveling as full-time salesmen during their
summers and sleeping at various fraternity houses as
they scouted area restaurants.
The result of their creativity and hard work is
EatNow.com, a new website dedicated to providing
accurate and efficient online ordering from local
restaurants. EatNow.com improves on its competitors'
business model by catering to three key demographic
areas--collegiate, residential and
corporate--simultaneously. College students can sort
restaurants based on EatNow.com's database of over 50
education institutions, and residential and corporate
customers can sort restaurants based on their address.
EatNow.com's internally developed GPS software
ensures that delivery locations are accurately matched
with participating restaurants. The GPS technology draws
out the delivery range of each area restaurant and
compares customer addresses to that range in order to
determine delivery availability. Customers receive an
accurate list of available restaurants instantaneously,
speeding the order process and ensuring customer
satisfaction. EatNow.com also plans to introduce a range
of other exclusive features following its launch period,
including saving favorite orders, group ordering and an
EatLater feature.
Nineteen-year-old Nat Turner, CEO of EatNow.com, has
attracted the attention of the world's media for his
unusual business aptitude, having started over twelve
companies in his short career. Turner has become one of
the most-recognized teenage entrepreneurs in the world;
his story has been featured in over 200 newspapers and
magazines worldwide including The Wall Street Journal,
The New York Times, The New York Post, Time Magazine,
Entrepreneur Magazine and USA Today.
"EatNow.com dramatically improves upon online
restaurant ordering technology and offers a more
detailed database of local restaurants, complete with
delivery range," said Turner. "Our objective in creating
EatNow.com was to facilitate not only quick and easy
online ordering but also to introduce a range of other
features, such as our GPS delivery mapping system, which
our competitors do not provide. We believe that
EatNow.com is the most advanced online ordering system
available, and are confident that consumers will
appreciate the many benefits our site offers."
EatNow.com is now available online at www.eatnow.com.
