I believe these services will fail if employment laws are ever strengthened, or held up more rigorously. The 'not so dirty secret' of the American economy is that it 'depends' (i.e. in it's current form) on tons of cheating, illegal migrant labour, de-fact sub-minimum wage, skimping on health benefits etc. etc.. It's 'sustainable' only to the extent that some workers, particularly undocumented - are willing and able to take the crap for the opportunity for a new life. Which is only slightly fair (fair to the extent that were a foreign workers regime legalized, conditions would be ballpark where they are now, and it would legally be 'legit' and there'd be plenty of workers). But in socialized countries, I just don't see it working, the numbers don't add up. I see these services working in NY/SF/LA and 'parts' of Chicago, maybe Ft. Lauderdale, Boston i.e. wealthier areas - the rest - no way, at market wages. London of course, maybe Paris. Though probably most of Asia. I just don't see this as mathematically viable in Scandinavian countries, or Canada, or most of the US. The end-game will require more efficiency in delivery, for example like some kind of better pickup arrangements for buildings, maybe ownership by the grocery companies so there's fewer entities trying to take money from the pie, possibly some kind of 'weekly delivery/sign up' for longer term engagement etc..
