Local Challenges
  • Third-party delivery apps take 15-30% of every order, making delivery margins razor-thin or negative
  • Restaurants have no control over delivery experience, but get blamed for late or cold food
  • In a metropolitan area of 2.7 million residents, intense competition makes customer retention critical for survival
  • High population density in Chicago means delivery apps aggressively compete for restaurant partnerships
  • With 7,500+ restaurants in Chicago, standing out requires every competitive advantage
Your Opportunity
  • Keep 100% of your delivery revenue instead of losing 15-30% to third-party apps
  • Own your customer relationships and data, not the delivery platforms
  • Capture your share of Chicago's 38% year-over-year online ordering growth
  • Compete effectively in Chicago's massive delivery market without giving up your margins
  • Customize delivery zones for Chicago neighborhoods like Fulton Market/West Loop and River North with different fees and minimums
