Delivery service launches in Palm Coast
Ernesto Vildoza and Bruno Abreu have launched Palm Coast Delivery Factory, Flagler County’s newest delivery service.
“When I lived in Miami, I utilized a similar service and it was so convenient,” Vildoza said. “I thought that it would be a great service for Palm Coast; they have a lot of people and restaurants waiting for us to launch.” The company is licensed and insured.
Palm Coast Delivery Factory will deliver just about anything to their customers via a phone call or preferably a text message. Items available for delivery include groceries, prescriptions, takeout lunch or dinner from a restaurant and more. The driver will deliver goods to a home, office, park, or most any other desired location. Customers simply call their order in to a restaurant, pay for it over the phone and text Palm Coast Delivery Factory the restaurant name, the name the order is under, when it will be ready and the address for the place of delivery.
“We feel strongly that offering this service will greatly assist those that are unable to leave their home, as well as potentially prevent drunk driving for those that feel the need to drive to the store to obtain alcohol during a party,” Abreu said.
Fees are $10 at a standard rate and $5 for all additional pick-up locations (any deliveries over Hammock Beach toll bridge, additional $2.00 for toll). For all debit and credit card, transaction fees apply: $1.00 per transaction.
Call 517-4018 or 386-517-4826, or go online www.facebook.com/PalmCoastDeliveryFactory.

New tourist magazine to launch in Flagler County
Veteran publisher and long-time Flagler Beach resident Richard Clemons will be launching “Mainly Local,” a tourist magazine in January of 2016.
“We’ve conducted extensive field testing and are happy to announce that “Mainly Local” is ready for marketing,” Clemons said. “It’s a quarterly tourist and hospitality magazine, revealing Flagler’s local heart and soul – with articles by local writers in conjunction with result-oriented advertising.”
For 14 months, Clemons has been delivering a free Dining Guide publication to specific hospitality locations in greater Flagler that provided 2,300 tourist viewing displays. This distribution results in a massive monthly readership – not counting high volume tourist eateries, shops, and attractions.
Flagler County has a yearly cash flow of nearly $300 million from tourists, and Clemons feels “Mainland Local” is strategically positioned for local businesses to tap into this rich market.
