His Company had the privilege of serving hundreds of national and regional clients, ad agencies and production companies.

Ron Patel, Managing Partner
Ron Patel co-founded JustDineIn.com with his long time high school friend Jared Thrapp in 2006. After a successful career in the wireless retail industry, he moved on to form a service business which markets and delivers for restaurants that don’t typically offer delivery. Just Dine In will pick up takeout food and catering orders from Albuquerque’s best restaurants and deliver to homes, offices and hotels all over the city. In 2008, the pair expanded service into Rio Rancho, directly adjacent to Albuquerque. In 2010, Just Dine In opened its first satellite expansion market in El Paso, TX and continue to grow all markets profitably to the present day. In June 2012, Ron purchased Synergy, a networking business in Albuquerque. He has authored a book called “That’s When It Hit Me!” It will be available on Amazon.com in mid to late 2013.

Ron is the Past President of the Restaurant Marketing & Delivery Association, an international non-profit trade association dedicated to the growth of the rapidly growing restaurant delivery industry.
