Here in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, we've had these food delivery services competing for the last few years, with their own apps, exclusive agreements with restaurants, and so on:
- Uber Eats
- DoorDash
- SkipTheDishes
- Foodora
- Fantuan
- HungryEats
Foodora just shut down two days ago: https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/04/27/2022709/0/en/foodora-Canada-announces-plans-to-close-business-while-assuring-support-for-employees.html https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/04/27/202270...
And there were at least two more that were previously available but seem to have been acquired: Just Eat (by SkipTheDishes), and Nomme (by DoorDash).
It's ridiculous how many companies are fighting over a market that doesn't even seem to be close to profitable for anyone.
- foepys 6y agoIn Germany consolidation already happened and the only player left worth mentioning is Lieferando, operated by Takeaway.com, a Dutch company focused on food delivery. Lieferando is only profitable since 2019 after acquiring literally all serious competitors and creating a de-facto monopoly.
