According to Pitchbook, The food delivery app market in the world is expected to grow up to $16.6 billion by 2023. Even this growth is Predicted to achieve through international expansion in general and Latin America in particular. By seeing the latest market activities, this prediction seems to be turning in to reality. 

This week, Latin America based leading food delivery company iFood and Hero-owned food delivery company Domicilios.com have declared their merger. The merger still needs regulatory approval, will be expected to take on Bogota based hometown leading company Rappi Inc. Rappi just last year received an investment of $1 billion from Japanese conglomerate SoftBank and became the largest Latin American venture. 

Why global companies are more interested in expanding the business to Latin America?

Certainly, a combination of many factors makes Latin  America a perfect market. Let’s take a brief overview of all the factors.

  • Income disparity:

Though wage disparity in Latin America has improved over a couple of years it is still significant. According to the World Economic Forum, the richest 10% of people of Latin America are holding  71% of the region’s wealth. As a result of this inequality coupled with the latest mobile technology, digital on-demand services have got popularity.

  • Metropolitan population:

From 47 megacities in the world, 6 are found in Latin America: Sau Paulo, Mexican city, Rio de Janeiro, Bogota, Buenos Aires, Lima. Since people of metropolitan cities are exposed to urban lifestyle enables delivery companies to focus on a particular area as a startup and then expand gradually from city centers outskirts. These efforts of companies lead them the growth in the region.

  • Infrastructure:

Since the region is lacking effective public transport infrastructure encourage people to depend on the private mode of transportation which leads to heavy traffic problems. This is the major factor for rising on-demand delivery apps. 

On-demand delivery companies have taken advantage of this traffic congestion and offer speedy delivery by motorcycle, bicycle or walking. This has also reduced the overhead costs of companies. The average delivery charges for a Rappi order is US$1. 

  • Technical infrastructure and VC investment:

The technology industry of Latin America is thriving as consumers are coming digital through apps and entrepreneurs are grabbing that opportunity and offers the connectivity. 

In the first half of 2019 VC investment in Latin American startups was totaled USD 2.6 billion. Technology is capturing every industry in Latin America from banking and education to travel and food delivery.

Sustainability of the Latin American market opportunity:

Despite all the current opportunities visible in on-demand delivery businesses in Latin America, the question of sustainability and profitability still remains unresolved.

There are many food delivery apps already holding a significant market share in Latin America. But Softbank’s billion-dollar investment on Rappi and Uber is also showing an interest in Cornershop are signs that the global delivery giants are interested in the region as well.

The on-demand industry will undoubtedly grow exponentially in Latin America. Powerful global players can surely overtake the market with their experience and local players can use region familiarity and local support to not only be the go-to option for consumers but to run profitable and sustainable regional businesses.

How Covid-19 affected the Latin American food delivery market?

The covid-19 outbreak has infected more than 1000,000 people across the globe. To contain this pandemic suspending public activities, allowing work from home and app-based delivery are the common steps that many countries in the world are taking. Latin American countries are no exception to this.

Figures show that Rappi is having almost 200,000 delivery people in nine Latin American countries and seen a 30% increase in deliveries as of mid-march. Most of them are supermarket orders and pharmacy orders. The company has seen a 28% rise in only pharmacy orders in Colombia after the pandemic. 

Brazilian food app iFood delivers ready-to-eat meals said it is too early to measure the impact of the pandemic on its business.

Market challenges in Latin America:

Though Latin America has a wide opportunity for on-demand businesses to grow there are still some challenges that need to keep in mind to establish a profitable business there.

  • Cutthroat competition is a big challenge for both local and global players in Latin America. But consumer preferences and digital behavior vary significantly across the region which creates a great opportunity for any startup to be popular in less time. 
  • There is poor address calibration and local businesses in less developed areas do not even disclose important information such as operating hours or contact details makes it more time-consuming and difficult to operate efficiently. But crowdsourcing can be helpful to overcome this challenge. 
  • Cash is still a prominent payment option in Latin America, so delivery companies needed to establish cash payments as an option as nearly 30% of current on-demand orders are paid by cash only.
  • Glovo has launched 7 ghost kitchens across Spain, Argentina, Peru, Italy, and Ukraine. It is also testing dark supermarkets aka SuperGlovos to deliver bread, milk, cereal, and drinks in just 20 minutes. 

Overcoming these challenges may help you to compete in the Latin American food delivery market. Existing delivery services have explored unique ways to deal with these obstacles, but continuous innovation is crucial in this region. The secondary spaces can help reduce congestion and may open the doors for the food industry to operate their businesses exclusively through delivery platforms.

Unless you are living in the safe bombproof military bunker, you must have heard and read a lot on how coronavirus is bringing the global economy on its knees. Though governments of all countries are working ceaselessly to rescue the global economy from the coronavirus outbreak, different industries are losing a heap of money with every passing day. According to a report by the UN Conference on Trade and Development, the global economy may see an impact of $1-2 trillion due to coronavirus outbreak. And the fact that the coronavirus vaccine won’t be market-ready before Christmas 2020 also influences the performance of the market severely.

However, the coronavirus outbreak has opened up many windows of opportunities for the on-demand food delivery industry. With government authorities imposing rules to shut down cafes and restaurants, people are opting more for on-demand food delivery apps. According to CNBC, Grab’s food delivery business in Singapore has increased by 20% in the last few days as people do not prefer to go out during coronavirus outbreak.

However, not putting delivery workers and customers in direct physical contact has later emerged as the challenge. But delivery companies like Postmates have found the way to deal with that challenge by introducing a few more features in their delivery apps.

Postmates on 6th March 2020 has added a new feature in its app and initiated ‘non-contact’ delivery. The major ambition behind the introduction of ‘non-contact’ delivery was reducing the spread of the coronavirus when its contract workers are delivering ordered meals.

To actualize the ‘non-contact’ delivery, Postmates has added a new feature called Drop Off options which facilitates users to specify how they would like to receive the delivery.

Not only Postmates but Chinese food delivery platform Meituan Dianping has also introduced the same ‘non-contact’ delivery, according to Bloomberg.

So, if you also want to leverage this opportunity created by the coronavirus outbreak in the on-demand food delivery market by developing an on-demand food delivery app, you should consider extra features to deliver the food packages that are coronavirus-free.

In this blog, we will discuss the profitable and result-oriented ways to develop and run an on-demand food delivery business amid the coronavirus outbreak. We will also discuss the steps you can take to deal with any other healthcare and economic crisis in the future. But before all of these, let’s first discuss the basics of the on-demand food delivery app and business.

The on-demand food delivery business basics you should know to move advance

  • The on-demand food delivery app is one of the three types of food delivery apps. These types of food delivery apps include an app for takeaways, an on-demand app for your own restaurant chain with your own delivery drivers, and an on-demand app for others’ restaurants with your delivery drivers. Among all of these, the on-demand app for others’ restaurants with your delivery drivers is the most profitable type of on-demand food delivery apps.
  • You should opt for the gig economy model rather than hiring own delivery staff to reduce operating costs and resources by more than 30%.
  • A single on-demand food delivery app consists of two different apps with different features for drivers and users. A dashboard for admin is also part of the on-demand food delivery app.
  • On-demand food delivery apps are making a huge sum of profit by introducing premium services, taking a commission on every order from listed restaurants, enabling restaurants to give the ads by paying money, taking a rating-based commission, and giving its online space to other companies for ads.
  • Top on-demand food delivery apps are offering remarkable discounts on every order to build a strong user base. But they add distance fees if the delivery distance is higher than 3-4 kilometers.
  • Aligning supply (availability of drivers) with the demand (food orders placed by users) is the major challenge all on-demand food delivery businesses are facing. However, companies have started using AI technology to predict the demand and satisfy it more effectively.
  • To encourage delivery drivers to serve in areas where demand is high, food delivery companies offer them a boost in their per delivery earning. They apply the same strategy even when it is raining as the number of food orders rises significantly during rainy weather.
  • Big food delivery companies form many dedicated teams and build centers to process applications of delivery drivers, distribute food delivery bags, and solve any query of the delivery drivers.
  • Food delivery apps track the speed of the delivery driver while he is delivering to make sure that the driver with the ‘bicycle delivery account’ is not using a car to deliver food.
  • Almost all companies deposit weekly earnings of drivers and restaurants in their bank accounts on a fixed day of a week. Whereas, a few companies let drivers and restaurant owners claim their earned money any day, any time.
  • All on-demand food delivery businesses are promoting transparency with an extensive rating system – delivery drivers, restaurant owners, and users can rate each other.

Top On-Demand Food Delivery Apps

So, now when you know the basics of the food delivery app, let’s move ahead and discuss advance – how to build an on-demand food delivery app during the coronavirus outbreak to leverage the high demand.

The advance – how to build an on-demand food delivery app during the coronavirus outbreak?

Following is the step-by-step guide to plan, develop, and deploy an on-demand food delivery app during a pandemic.

Step 1:

Do not aim to just develop an on-demand food delivery app to earn money from it during a coronavirus outbreak. Instead, focus on long-term goals and use the surge created by the coronavirus outbreak in the on-demand industry to build a strong initial user base.

This means the first step should be all about defining your short-term and long-term requirements & goals and drafting the business plan. Your business plan must include everything from locations, business models, targeted users, app feature set, marketing campaigns, and legal concerns.

Here, you should also identify the ways to ensure the virus-free food package delivery.

Step 2:

Approach an on-demand food delivery app development company, carefully!

Amid the rising fear of coronavirus, different countries are locking down the cities and asking companies to shut down their offices or implement work-from-home policy. So, if you end up outsourcing your project to the app development company of the highly affected country, you will not get excellent output and on-time app delivery.

Moreover, you should also take app development and the delivery time into account as you only have a time window of 60 – 80 days to launch the food delivery app. If you miss this time window, you will miss the business opportunity created by a coronavirus.

Step 3:

After you approach an on-demand app development company, share your business plan or business requirements so that their team of business experts can validate your idea and identify the scope.

Since consultation from experts plays a crucial role, talk to their business experts proactively and discuss everything from the business model, app design, feature set, legality, and marketing campaigns.

On-Demand Food Delivery App Features

Step 4:

Most of the app development companies give you an update on the ongoing app development process daily or weekly. So, whenever they give you the update or show you the basic design and working of the app, do not turn blind eye to it. Ask them straightaway to change the design or feature if you do not like it.

Moreover, keep an eagle eye on the coronavirus outbreak and with the evolving scenario, make necessary changes in your app features, business model, and marketing campaign. After all,  you have to utilize the business opportunity created by the coronavirus outbreak to give an initial boost to your food delivery business.

Step 5:

At last, when your hired app development company delivers you the developed app, make sure it does not have any bugs. Because if there are many bugs in your app and you deploy it without solving them, it affects the user experience. And if your IT partner solves those bugs, it delays the app deployment. Meaning, none of the options is helping you here, except a bug-free app straight from the app development company!

Step 6:

When it comes to running the marketing campaign, be very precise. Do not promote all of your app features. Instead, identify the 2-3 most unique features which can attract more users amid coronavirus outbreak and promote those features only.

Moreover, focus on short-term goals, try to build an initial user base, and do not pay much heed to long-term goals as of now. For instance, you should focus on ‘non-contact’ delivery as it is trending right now rather than focusing on any other common features of the mobile app.

The future – how to sustain the on-demand food delivery app?

The coronavirus isn’t going to stay here forever. But your app will! Thus, it is a vitally important step to adopt the new changes of the on-demand app market in the upcoming future. If you fail to put your app parallel to the market changes,  your app won’t simply survive long.

The following are the top two ways to sustain the on-demand food delivery app.

  • First of all, you should understand the fact that on-demand app development isn’t the one time process. With every new trend and market change, you have to update your app by adding new features. Not only this, but you have to change the feature set of your on-demand app when you introduce a new business model. Thus, you should always hire an on-demand app development company that stands beside you as long as you continue running your food delivery business. Having an on-demand food delivery company always ready for you makes you act quickly to the market change. They make you seize the new business opportunity way before your competitors.
  • Your goals should not be limited to build an initial user base. You should also work on the strategies to keep those initial users into your business sales life cycle even after the end of the coronavirus outbreak. For that, you have to promote transparency, solve their queries quickly, offer remarkable user experience, understand their requirements, and level up the feature set.

]]>
With a population of over 1.2 billion, India is topping the chart of the biggest customer markets. India’s 563 million young people making India gold mine for food delivery startups. According to a very reliable source, revenue in the Indian online food delivery segment amounts to US$7,730M in 2019 which is expected to cross US$12,536M by 2023, at the annual growth rate of 12.8%.

Two major players of Indian food delivery market are Zomato and Swiggy. Both unicorn status earned companies process more than 13 million orders in the month. However, due to low-margin business, poor supply-demand ratio, over-reliance on gig workers and cutthroat competition, they both are losing a heap of money. Thus, they are trying many ways to cut the operation cost and to have enough drivers to satisfy the demand.

In the second month of this year, Zomato tied up with many e-bike manufacturers of India to convert 40% of the fleet to power-assisted bikes. At present, Zomato has a fleet of more than 5000 e-bikes and delivery partners are delivering food on e-bikes in over 12 cities of India. In his official statement, Zomato spokesperson said that e-bikes enable drivers to deliver the food on time and earn more.

Is it feasible for Indian food delivery startups to do food delivery with electric bikes?

 
So, if you are a food delivery startup from India and eager to know whether it is really feasible to introduce e-bikes for food delivery purpose, continue reading this feasible study report. In this FSR, we will discuss all factors affecting conventional food delivery method as well as food delivery with e-bikes method. Using the evaluation criteria such as cost, technology, distribution, legal, and operation, we will evaluate the possible use of e-bikes in food delivery segment and come to a conclusion which will surely change the way you are running food delivery startup.

E scooter for food delivery startups

Problems Indian food delivery startups are facing

 
Following are the top problems Indian food delivery startups are facing while delivering food using the conventional delivery method.

Delivery drivers are earning less amid rising fuel price

 
Though food delivery companies are offering very good employment opportunity to delivery executives, they are claiming that they cannot earn enough money to survive effortlessly. They have to spend a major percentage of their earning on the fuel and since they are independent contractors, food delivery companies cannot pay them the fuel price. This whole situation restricts more delivery executives from joining the company which eventually decreases the order fill rate (percentage of orders satisfied) and so does the user satisfaction rate.

➯ An inefficient driver tracking method

As of now, a user can track the delivery driver who is on his way to deliver the food, in the mobile app. But many users complain that they can’t track delivery drivers properly and it is true. Delivery drivers are tracked using their phone’s location. If they keep GPS on their phones off, there is no other way to track them.

➯ Congested cities causing a delay

Indian cities are among the most congested cities in the world and to deliver food in such cities, delivery drivers require 20-30% more time. Because of this undesirable delay, customers get the food late and delivery drivers earn below average. So, both customer satisfaction and driver satisfaction get affected, very badly.

➯ Possible solutions to problems food delivery startups are facing

After discussing the problems food delivery startups are facing, let’s discover some solutions to decode those problems.

➯ Don’t work with gig workers

The most proposed solution is hiring delivery executives rather than relying on gig workers. They claim that hired delivery drivers get all employee benefits and satisfactory wage which can double their satisfaction rate. Having full control on delivery drivers is another advantage they are quoting as the benefit of hiring delivery drivers. However, this is not a feasible solution at all. If you choose to hire delivery executives and not to rely on gig workers, your company’s internal cost will increase significantly which you really can’t afford.

➯ Filter delivery jobs based on distance and account type

Delivery job filtration based on distance and account type is another proposed solution. Here is how it works.

When a user registers himself to be a delivery driver for your food delivery startup, give him the choice to select an account type from available two options – motorbike account and car account. If he selects motorbike account, you should allocate him deliveries only within 2.5 kilometres and if he selects car account, allocate him deliveries beyond 2.5 kilometres. Car account holder delivery driver who has to drive more distance to deliver the food, gets more per kilometre rate after completing the first 2.5 kilometres which means he does not have the option to complain.

Same way, a motorbike account holder who receives delivery requests to deliver food within 2.5 kilometres does not have the option to complain as he does not need to work hard and spend more time and fuel to deliver food within 2.5 kilometres only!

However, this is just a hack, not an ethical solution (to let drivers earn based on account type).

» Distribute e-bikes to delivery partners

And the last solution is distributing e-bikes like you distribute delivery bags to delivery partners. In case you don’t know, all food delivery companies give delivery bags to the drivers as the welcome kit and deduct the money of the delivery bag from the first week earning of the drivers. And when the delivery driver returns the bag, companies deposit the deducted money back to the driver’s account. Same way, give e-bikes to some selected delivery drivers and deduct the 50% of the price of an e-bike from their earning. When they return it, check the condition of the e-bike and deposit the deducted money back to the drivers’ accounts. This is a very revolutionary, practical and ethical idea which alone can solve all problems of food delivery startups.

We will now evaluate this idea by taking a few important factors into account.

 
 Evaluation – why delivering food with e-bikes is the feasible solution?

We haven’t reached the ultimate solution yet. But after this evaluation process, we will firmly say that an e-bike is the guardian angel for food delivery startups!

➯ Cost

To buy an e-bike, you have to spend somewhere between $300 to $500. However, as we have discussed, after giving it to a driver, deduct 50% of the price of an e-bike from his earnings and when he returns it to you, refund him the deducted amount (after checking the bike’s condition) and give that e-bike to some other driver and deduct the 50% of the price of an e-bike from that driver’s earnings. Keep doing this and you will never feel that you have purchased e-bikes by spending huge.

➯ Technology

Generally, the latest generation of e-bikes is coming with inbuilt IoT features. One of the most prominent features is the tracking feature. A driver who delivers the food using e-bike is tracked via his e-bike and not via his phone. Meaning, users can track the location of the driver even when his phone or its GPS is off. But to actualize it, the connection between the mobile app of a driver, admin panel and IoT controller of the e-bike is the fundamental need.

➯ Distribution

You can distribute the e-bikes to those drivers who do not afford fuel and own motorbike to deliver the food. For that, you can allow them to ask for e-bike when they register themselves to be delivery executives.

➯ Legal

In India, there is no strict rule regarding e-bike. In fact, the government is appreciating it as it is environment-friendly.

➯ Operation

Once you give an e-bike to a delivery driver, you are not responsible for day-to-day operation (battery charging) of the e-bike. However, you can offer free maintenance service to those drivers whose rating is high.

Conclusion

 
Buying a fleet of e-bikes is undoubtedly the best investment you can make as the food delivery startup. It helps you to sustain a high user and delivery driver satisfaction rate while spending very less. However, to deliver food using e-bike you should integrate a different module into your food delivery app. This module establishes the connection between the driver app, admin panel and e-bike and enables admin to know the status of the e-bike.

Foodpanda clone script Food panda clone app

Most people think about building a website or app to take their business online. Though building a food delivery app is easier when you opt for solutions like the FoodPanda clone script. But having a clone script is never good enough. While putting up your app in the App Store you need to follow certain guidelines. The app built using a FoodPanda Clone Script even though simple does not follow the guidelines of the App Store and has chances of getting automatically deleted.

The strategy of FoodPanda to become successful in food delivery business :

People are interested to create a successful food delivery app like FoodPanda Clone app. But have you ever thought of why the company is so successful everywhere? How are they able to attract the audience and keep them loyal?

Well, the most important thing that contributed to the international success of FoodPanda is their app with user-friendly, high quality, and effective interface. With each passing year, the company has managed to enhance its app features to boost the number of customers.

The company enables its customers to put orders through Foodpanda with a step by step pattern:

  • Collect postal information about the customer.
  • Filter the information based on nearby restaurants.
  • Check if any bonus deal is available
  • Menu display along with the sub-categories of food.
  • Confirmation message when the order is placed.
  • Estimated arrival time display.
  • Notifications about the order.

Foodpanda communicates the details of the order to the assigned restaurant and also provides the contact information of the customer in case if there are further problems in delivering the food.

The success also depends on the fleet of delivery person that the company has hired to fulfill the pick and drop for each order successfully.

The app has received an enormous amount of funding recently from investors like Goldman Sachs and Rocket Internet. This investment has made it possible for the company to have an upper hand over competitors like Zomato, UberEats, etc. FoodPanda is taking a leap over other competitors such as Tinyowl and Freshmenu if we check out the financial support, revenue, number of acquisitions and social media followers.

The key elements for the success of your food delivery app:

» Partner restaurants: Even though the eateries are not too famous, they can always provide delicious options that are pocket-friendly for your customers. The main component of your success is to deliver tasty and fresh food from good restaurants. The choice of restaurants for users can be helpful to earn more revenue.

» Delivery Persons: Even if the food is delicious, that won’t reach the customers on time without efficient delivery personnel. And what is the use of delivering food after the mood of your customer goes off? Opting for fast delivery options can make your app the first choice of users when it comes to the food delivery business.

App Modules that our FoodPanda Clone app have:
