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 demand for meal delivery services in Angola has been on the rise in recent years.

Customer preferences: Angolans have shown a growing preference for convenience and speed when it comes to food delivery. This trend is in line with global patterns as more people opt for on-demand services that offer quick and easy access to meals. Additionally, there is an increasing demand for healthier food options, and meal delivery services are responding to this by offering more nutritious meals.

Trends in the market: One of the major trends in the meal delivery market in Angola is the rise of tech-enabled food delivery platforms. These platforms are leveraging technology to improve the delivery experience for customers, from faster delivery times to real-time tracking of orders. Additionally, there has been an increase in the number of restaurants partnering with delivery platforms to expand their reach and increase sales.

Local special circumstances: The Angolan economy has been growing steadily in recent years, and this has led to an increase in disposable income among the population. As a result, more people are able to afford meal delivery services, which were previously considered a luxury. Additionally, the country's urbanization trend has led to a rise in demand for food delivery services in cities.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The Angolan government has been implementing policies aimed at diversifying the economy and reducing its dependence on oil. This has led to increased investment in sectors such as agriculture, which has the potential to create more jobs and boost incomes. As the economy continues to grow, more people are likely to have disposable income to spend on meal delivery services. Additionally, there has been a rise in foreign investment in the country, which has led to the entry of international food delivery platforms.
