Armenian food is among the world's oldest cuisines and the Yerevan restaurant scene has caught up to major European capitals in the last five years. GeraEats connects every major restaurant category — Armenian traditional, Georgian, Russian, Lebanese, Italian, Asian, vegan, fast food — to your door in 25–45 minutes.

Regulation — RA Food Safety + Consumer Rights

Restaurants on GeraEats Armenia must hold a valid food-safety registration with the RA Food Safety Inspectorate (Սննդամթերքի անվտանգության տեսչություն) and operate in line with the Ministry of Health's hygiene standards. The platform verifies these on sign-up and re-verifies annually. Consumer disputes (wrong order, spoiled food, late delivery) are handled under RA Consumer Rights Protection law with a written refund/replacement policy displayed at checkout.

Yerevan use case

A family in Arabkir orders Friday-night dinner for four — a khorovats platter, tabbouleh, a Georgian khachapuri, two soft drinks — total 7,800 ֏ plus 700 ֏ delivery. Paid in two taps with Idram. Rider arrives in 35 minutes with temperature-controlled packaging. Receipt lands in the GeraEats app and (if requested) via email.

GeraEats vs. menu.am vs. Wolt

menu.am is the domestic incumbent and the first mover in Armenian food delivery. Wolt has been present intermittently. GeraEats differentiates on three axes: (1) lower delivery fees because the rider network is shared with GeraRide, (2) integrated Idram one-tap checkout as a first-class default rather than an add-on, and (3) cross-product GeraCoins earn/redeem. For a user already on the Gera ecosystem, ordering via GeraEats compounds value back into the rest of the stack.

Diaspora angle — send a meal home

A recurring feature request we received from diaspora users: can an Armenian in Los Angeles order a Friday-night dinner for parents in Yerevan and pay in USD? Yes. Add the parents' address, choose the restaurant, pay in your home currency from your US / French / Canadian / Russian card, and the platform delivers in AMD-billed Armenia. It is one of the highest-retention use cases we see.
