A TEENAGE entrepreneur is launching a fast food and emergency delivery business, offering residents whatever they want...fast.

Jason Moore’s Turbo Takeaways website goes live today, offering customers in Colchester and Clacton the chance to have a huge range of goods delivered to their doors.

Among the products on offer are McDonalds and KFC takeaways – neither chain has a delivery service of its own.

Jason, 18, has already recruited three self-employed drivers to help him make deliveries and hopes to hire more if the business takes off.

He said: “It is something I’ve been looking to start up for quite a while.

“It was just about getting the drivers.

“I know myself there are things I need and I can’t be bothered to go out to the shops.”

The business will deliver fast food, and just about anything else you need on a special order.

If, for example, a single parent runs out of nappies late at night and can’t get out the other children are asleep, he’ll be happy to oblige, within the hour, for a flat £4.95 delivery charge within five miles of either town centre.

Customers can visit the website, select or request items and pay using a debit card.

The business is being launched today for a two day trial, between 4pm and midnight to give Jason a feel for likely demand.

He said: “It is really exciting but nerve-racking as well. I don’t know exactly how it is going to go.”

If all goes well, however, he hopes to add a live estimated waiting time a driver availability displays on the website.

He said fast food chains had have a resale policy, so he was free to buy fast food and resell with with a delivery charge – the the blessing of the companies.

Jason, of Ship Wharf, Hythe, Colchester, who grew up in Clacton and went to Clacton Coastal Academy, said he had received a lot of positive feedback already and had already had people trying to place orders on the website.

He said: “People are going crazy about it, especially the custom orders.

“There are a lot of people who need things who can’t get out for whatever reason.”
