Definition:

Meal Delivery is the online ordering and delivery of prepared meals by a restaurant or a platform for direct consumption. Orders are typically placed in an app or on a website. The delivery is handled by the platform enterprise (e.g. Deliveroo) or directly by the restaurant (e.g. Domino’s).

Structure:

Meal Delivery contains the user and revenue development of two different delivery service solutions for prepared meals: (1) Restaurant Delivery and (2) Platform Delivery. The Restaurant Delivery market includes the delivery of meals carried out directly by the restaurants. The order may be made via platforms (e.g. Delivery Hero, Just Eat) or directly through a restaurant website (e.g. Domino's). The Platform Delivery market focuses on online delivery services that provide customers with meals from partner restaurants that do not necessarily have to offer food delivery themselves. In this case, the platform (e.g. Deliveroo) handles the delivery process.).

Additional Information:

Revenue includes the gross merchandise value (GMV), defined as the total sales dollar value for merchandise/food sold through the Online Food Delivery marketplace. User and revenue figures represent B2C services.

The Meal Delivery market in Algeria has been growing rapidly in recent years, driven by a variety of factors such as changing consumer preferences and the rise of digital platforms.

Customer preferences: Algerian consumers have shown a growing preference for convenience and time-saving options, which has led to an increase in demand for meal delivery services. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has further accelerated this trend, as more people are staying at home and relying on delivery services for their daily meals.

Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the Algerian Meal Delivery market is the growing popularity of online ordering and delivery platforms. These platforms have made it easier for consumers to order food from a wide range of restaurants and food outlets, and have also enabled smaller, independent restaurants to reach a larger customer base. Another trend is the emergence of healthy meal delivery services, which cater to consumers who are looking for healthier meal options.

Local special circumstances: Algeria's traditional cuisine is a blend of Berber, Arabic, and French influences, and is known for its rich and flavorful dishes. This has led to a diverse and vibrant food culture, with a wide range of options available for consumers. Additionally, the country's large youth population has also contributed to the growth of the Meal Delivery market, as younger consumers are more likely to adopt new technologies and embrace digital platforms.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: Algeria's economy has been heavily reliant on the oil and gas sector, which has experienced a downturn in recent years. This has led to a rise in unemployment and a decline in purchasing power for many Algerians. However, the Meal Delivery market has remained resilient, as consumers continue to prioritize convenience and affordability. Additionally, the government has implemented policies to support small and medium-sized enterprises, which has helped to stimulate growth in the food and hospitality sector.
