Analyst Opinion

The Online Food Delivery market in Denmark has been experiencing a significant growth in recent years, with more and more consumers choosing to order their meals online rather than eating out or cooking at home.

Customer preferences:
One of the main reasons for the growth of the Online Food Delivery market in Denmark is the busy lifestyle of its consumers. With many Danes working long hours, they often do not have the time or energy to cook their own meals. Additionally, with the rise of digitalization, consumers are increasingly looking for convenience and speed in their daily lives, which online food delivery services can provide.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Online Food Delivery market in Denmark is the increasing demand for healthy and sustainable food options. Many consumers are becoming more health-conscious and environmentally aware, and are therefore seeking out food delivery services that offer organic, locally-sourced, and plant-based options.Another trend in the market is the rise of virtual kitchens, also known as ghost kitchens or dark kitchens. These are commercial kitchens that are used solely for the purpose of preparing food for delivery, and they have become increasingly popular in Denmark due to their cost-effectiveness and efficiency.

Local special circumstances:
Denmark is a small country with a high population density, which means that many consumers live in urban areas where there is a high concentration of restaurants and food delivery options. This has led to intense competition among food delivery companies, with many offering competitive pricing and promotions in order to attract customers.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The Online Food Delivery market in Denmark has been supported by several macroeconomic factors, including the country's strong economy and high levels of digitalization. Denmark has one of the highest GDP per capita in the world, which means that consumers have more disposable income to spend on food delivery services. Additionally, Denmark has one of the highest rates of internet usage in Europe, which has made it easier for consumers to order food online.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and represent what consumers pay for these products and services. The user metrics show the number of customers who have made at least one online purchase within the past 12 months.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies, third-party studies and reports, as well as survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, GDP per capita, and internet connection speed. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing. The main drivers are internet users, urban population, usage of key players, and attitudes toward online services.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. GCS data is reweighted for representativeness.
