The online food delivery services market size is anticipated to advance, attaining a value of US$ 41.94 billion in 2023. According to a market analysis of online on-demand food delivery services, usage is expected to develop at a CAGR of 10% until 2033. By 2033, the online food delivery services market is projected to reach a value of US$ 101.32 billion at the current pace of growth.
Customers are moving online rapidly, which has led to exponential expansion in the e-commerce sector. These changes in consumer shopping patterns result from various factors, some of which are industry or nation-specific, while others are the result of global trends.
Mobile Internet and 5G Reshape the Online Food Delivery Landscape
Customers now have access to an array of various applications, including online meal delivery services, owing to improved network connectivity and an upsurge in cell phones. Users of smartphones can easily make orders with their chosen eateries by browsing a list of establishments. Even the most isolated regions now have smartphones. The opinions of online ordering have changed as a result of how simple it is to set up meal delivery apps on smartphones.
Globally, the number of people using mobile internet has significantly increased. Rapid network infrastructure development has increased network connectivity across developing nations, making remote access to mobile applications possible. The introduction of 5G technology enables faster surfing speeds to improve the online ordering experience and create fresh potential for food delivery services online market expansion.
Challenges and Opportunities with Commission Rates for Online Food Delivery Services
Restaurants are significantly constrained by the commission fees imposed by delivery platforms, which can be anywhere between 15 and 30% of the cost of a meal. These commissions’ controversial nature has been highlighted by certain American governments placing caps on them. Platforms have experimented with different restaurant commission rates and terms to allay these worries, but the results are still up in the air.
The spread of “dark kitchens” and delivery-focused business models complicates the problem. Since they have reduced overhead expenses, these models may more easily handle high commissions and frequently have higher visibility on platforms. As a result, they can displace conventional eateries and take a larger portion of the online food delivery services market. The gloomy kitchens present a chance for conventional restaurants to adjust by opening far-off delivery-only locations.
The dynamics of the restaurant sector are being altered by legislative measures, platform agreements, and the emergence of delivery-first business models, all of which significantly impact commission rates on restaurants.
“The future of online food delivery services is wider than cost-effective operations. New operating models are likely to surface. Niche markets, including online grocery and alcohol delivery services, could catch up with the momentum and be instrumental revenue streams for market players,” opines a lead analyst at FMI.
