When he released the app, it immediately got traction, with people placing orders. Gaston built it for Cordoba restaurants first, after several months of development, and it’s still the only food delivery app in town. The base app is built similarly to food delivery apps for bigger companies. “And after that, a lot of other food delivery services started using the app.” “My plan was to deliver this service to this community and start making some progress on the technology that they use for delivery,” says Gaston. Gaston was up for the challenge and created a straightforward delivery app for local Cordoba restaurants he named Uh-Lala! Restaurants configure the app themselves, and there’s no app fee. The food truck proprietor added that he was new in town and needed a tool to boost his sales. After seven years of building apps for startups, Gaston visited a local food delivery truck to pick up dinner, and the server asked him, “Why don’t you do a food delivery app for the town, since you are an Android developer? We don’t have any food delivery apps here, but in the big city, there are tons of them.”
