Almost 1 in 2 in younger age groups have used an app. Feeling of safety with hygiene standards in ride hailing apps.

    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.

    Southeast Asia New Economy

    July 29, 2020 Strategy Focus Southeast Asia New Economy Understanding ASEAN's Super Apps • Grab and Gojek started as ride hailing companies and have expanded to food and parcel delivery, e-wallet and other daily services, solidifying their "Super App" status in ASEAN. • Bloomberg reported in April 2019 that both companies had joined the "decacorn" ranks, valuing Grab at US$14bn and Gojek at US$10bn. • Both Grab and Gojek have stated their intentions to list by 2023/24. Building on our June 14, 2020 ASEAN Who’s Who report, we take a closer look at Grab and Gojek, two prominent Southeast Asian app providers that achieved Super App status. Practicality vs. time spent: The ASEAN population spends 7-10 hours online daily (Global Web Index as of 3Q19), of which 80% is on social media and video streaming sites. While ride hailing services command relatively low usage hours, the provision of a reliable alternative to ASEAN's (except for Singapore's) underdeveloped public transport has made both "must own" apps. Based on June 2020 App Annie data, 29% and 27% of the ASEAN population had downloaded the Grab and Gojek apps, respectively. Merchant acquisition moving to center stage: A price war and exorbitant incentives/ subsidies characterized customer acquisition strategies until Grab acquired Uber’s Southeast Asian operations in March 2018. We now see broader ride hailing pricing discipline. Grab and Gojek have turned to merchant acquisition as their focus shifts to online food delivery business (and beyond). ASEAN TAMs for ride hailing of US$25bn and online food delivery of US$20bn by 2025E: Our sector models focus on ASEAN’s middle 40% household income segment, which we see as the target audience for both businesses.

    Food Delivery Platforms: Will They Eat the Restaurant Industry's Lunch?

    Food Delivery Platforms: Will they eat the restaurant industry’s lunch? On-demand food delivery platforms have exploded in popularity across both the emerging and developed world. For those restaurant businesses which successfully cater to at-home consumers, delivery has the potential to be a highly valuable source of incremental revenues, albeit typically at a lower margin. Over the longer term, the concentration of customer demand through the dominant ordering platforms raises concerns over the bargaining power of these platforms, their singular control of customer data, and even their potential for vertical integration. Nonetheless, we believe that restaurant businesses have no choice but to embrace this high-growth channel whilst working towards the ideal long-term solution of in-house digital ordering capabilities.

  • 55 Model Platform Sharing Economy Di Indonesia Study Kasus

    55 Model Platform Sharing Economy Di Indonesia Study Kasus

    Model Platform Sharing Economy di Indonesia Study Kasus: Unicorn Lokal Prayogi R. Saputra Universitas Islam Raden Rahmat, Indonesia, [email protected] Nur Hayatin Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang, Indonesia, [email protected] Abstract The sharing economy platform is a concept that is not yet stable and will continue to grow. This is evidenced by the various types of sharing economy platforms developed, especially in Indonesia. Many applications are made, but there are only a few applications that succeed in their business even reaching the Unicorn. They are Gojek, Traveloka, Tokopedia and Bukalapak. This study answers the question of how a typology of economic models sharing platforms in Indonesia is successful by taking the four unicorns as objects. The basic model of sharing economy used consists of four models taking into account the level of company control over participants and the level of competition between participants. Typology was developed through analysis of qualitative data obtained by observing the 4 Unicorn application which became the most successful platform in terms of user acquisition, active users, and transaction volumes. The theoretical contribution of this research is the sharing economic categorization model in Indonesia, considering that there is no research that presents the generic typology as intended. While the practical contribution is to provide a reference for beginners and investors about sharing economic models that are relevant for the Indonesian market. From the results of this study, we will know the typology model of a sharing economic platform that is developing in Indonesia, so it is expected to be a reference for business development towards the industrial revolution era 4.0.
  • On-Demand Grocery Disruption

    On-Demand Grocery Disruption

    QUARTERLY SHAREHOLDER LETTER Topic: On-demand Grocery Disruption 31 March 2021 Dear Shareholder, Until the great Covid boost of 2020, grocery shopping was slower to move online than many categories. Demand was muted for a few reasons: groceries have lowish ticket sizes – lower, at least, than consumer electronics or high fashion – and low margins; people tend to buy food from companies they trust (particularly fresh food); shopping behaviour is sticky due to the relatively habitual, high frequency nature of grocery shopping, and barriers such as delivery fees were off-putting. On the other hand, the supply side struggled with complicated supply chains and difficult-to-crack economics. However, the lengthy Covid pandemic has encouraged people to experiment at a time when the level of digital adoption has made it a whole lot easier for suppliers to reach scale. Unsurprisingly, recent surveys indicate that most people who tried online grocery shopping during the pandemic will continue to do it post Covid. We therefore expect continued growth in online grocery penetration, and within online grocery, on-demand services that deliver in a hurry are likely to keep growing faster, from less than 10% of the total online grocery bill in most markets today. Ready when you are This letter focuses on the threats and opportunities facing companies from the growth in on-demand grocery shopping. We look at on-demand specifically as we think it will be the most relevant channel for online groceries in EM, and could be the most disruptive. The Fund is exposed to the trend in several ways.
