  • The Four Horsemen of the Restaurant Apocalypse?
    The Four Horsemen of the Restaurant Apocalypse? How lessons from the travel industry’s response to online travel agencies may enable restaurants to survive (and hopefully thrive) in a delivery-heavy future. by Zach Goldstein, CEO and Founder, Thanx The Original Mel’s diner is a Northern California legend. Now at 22 locations, the classic drive-up service is long-gone, just one of many necessary adaptations for a restaurant that celebrated its 70-year anniversary two years ago. The latest evolution may be most challenging yet. “In our first two years on the delivery platforms, revenue went up 20% year-over-year. It was the largest top-line growth we’ve experienced in two decades,” said Tony Bendana, restaurant industry veteran and current Chief Operating Officer of The Original Mel’s which is listed in four third-party delivery apps today — Doordash, Uber Eats, Grubhub, and Postmates. “But when we looked at how much profit we were making, it hadn’t moved.” Tony Bendana, COO at The Original Mel’s What follows is an in-depth study of the massive disruption facing restaurants today, broken into the following sections: Restaurants Are Digitizing 04 More than $200B in restaurants sales will come through digital channels (including third-party marketplaces) by 2022 The Question of Incrementality 05 Because of high take-rates, many restaurants are questioning whether delivery marketplaces are friend or foe We’ve Seen This Story Before: Hotels and Online Travel Agencies 08 OTAs grew rapidly and ultimately stole share from hotels themselves The

  • Response: Just Eat Takeaway.Com N. V
    NON- CONFIDENTIAL JUST EAT TAKEAWAY.COM Submission to the CMA in response to its request for views on its Provisional Findings in relation to the Amazon/Deliveroo merger inquiry 1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND 1. In line with the Notice of provisional findings made under Rule 11.3 of the Competition and Markets Authority ("CMA") Rules of Procedure published on the CMA website, Just Eat Takeaway.com N.V. ("JETA") submits its views on the provisional findings of the CMA dated 16 April 2020 (the "Provisional Findings") regarding the anticipated acquisition by Amazon.com BV Investment Holding LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc. ("Amazon") of certain rights and minority shareholding of Roofoods Ltd ("Deliveroo") (the "Transaction"). 2. In the Provisional Findings, the CMA has concluded that the Transaction would not be expected to result in a substantial lessening of competition ("SLC") in either the market for online restaurant platforms or the market for online convenience groceries ("OCG")1 on the basis that, as a result of the Coronavirus ("COVID-19") crisis, Deliveroo is likely to exit the market unless it receives the additional funding available through the Transaction. The CMA has also provisionally found that no less anti-competitive investors were available. 3. JETA considers that this is an unprecedented decision by the CMA and questions whether it is appropriate in the current market circumstances. In its Phase 1 Decision, dated 11 December 20192, the CMA found that the Transaction gives rise to a realistic prospect of an SLC as a result of horizontal effects in the supply of food platforms and OCG in the UK.

  • Five Charts: the State of Food Delivery Not Everyone Orders Food Online, but the Competition for Customers Is Still Fierce
    Five Charts: The State of Food Delivery Not everyone orders food online, but the competition for customers is still fierce ARTICLE Krista Garcia Food delivery, common in urban areas where population is dense and car ownership is low, is expanding to the suburbs and beyond thanks to the rise of digital services connecting users to restaurants. Diners used to have just pizza and Chinese to choose from, but now their options include fast food, higher-end fare, food carts and even virtual restaurants that serve as commissaries to fuel delivery orders rather than sit-down customers. Popular restaurants for delivery are even starting to reallocate space to accommodate staging areas and to make up for fewer in-store diners. This follows a similar square footage repurposing trend that is happening in the grocery industry. A year and a half ago, a majority of US internet users (52%) looked to a restaurant's own app or website to order food delivery. Grubhub was favored by around one-third, according to Cowen and Company. Five Charts: The State of Food Delivery : Not everyone orders food online, but the competition for customers is still fierce 1 ©2020 eMarketer Inc. All rights reserved. Since then, Grubhub has gained market share due to its 2017 acquisition of Eat24 from Yelp. The company phased out the separate Eat24 ordering platform in August 2018. Food delivery adoption is very much tied to age. Overall, 36% of US internet users ordered restaurant delivery in the past year per Market Force Information, but it was the under-35 group driving this.
