Things to keep in mind...

Delivery services and be a great convenient tool for your customers, but there are things to remember when trying to decide if they're the right choice for your business...

  • Start small: If you're just getting started, we recommend picking one service first so that you can get your logistics in check and understand the impact on staffing, your margins, and your capacity

  • Margins: Can your margins withstand an additional 20-30% cut? While it's great that these platforms promise additional reach and exposure to new customers to help increase your order volume, the financials need to make sense for you and your business

  • Integrity: As these services outsource the delivery of your items, you cannot always guarantee that your customer's grocery order will reach them in a way that's representative of your brand. You are taking on added risk for the potential of reaching new customers
