# Efficient QSR Ordering Services KFC Announced the Release of Quick Pick-Up For Fast Ordering By Colin Smith | Published 2021-11-17 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fast-ordering-services References: [qsrmagazine](https://www.qsrmagazine.com/news/kfc-launches-quick-pick-restaurants-shorten-drive-thru-lines) & [kfc](https://www.kfc.ca/?a)  KFC is following other restaurant chains such as McDonald's and Wendy's by incorporating fast ordering services in its mobile application. 'Quick Pick-Up' is a service that allows KFC-Goers to place an order at any participating location in advance on KFC's website or on the KFC mobile app. There will be several reserved parking spaces at each location for users of this service, ensuring the smoothest experience possible. KFC has noted that Americans spend a ridiculous amount of time waiting in lines across their lives, with this amount reaching almost 37 billion hours. Therefore, the Quick Pick-Up service is meant to reduce this massive figure as much as possible. In addition to the release of the feature itself, KFC is providing limited-time offers for users of the service, including discounted and free products.
