Analyst Opinion

The popularity of restaurant delivery services has been on the rise in recent years, and the Dominican Republic is no exception.

Customer preferences:
Dominicans are increasingly turning to restaurant delivery services as a convenient and time-saving option for meals. With busy work schedules and long commutes, many consumers are seeking out quick and easy meal solutions. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increase in demand for delivery services as more people are staying at home and avoiding crowded public spaces.

Trends in the market:
One trend that is driving the growth of the restaurant delivery market in the Dominican Republic is the rise of online ordering platforms. Companies like Uber Eats, Glovo, and Rappi are gaining popularity in the country, offering consumers a wide range of restaurant options and the convenience of ordering from their smartphones. Additionally, many restaurants are partnering with these platforms to expand their reach and increase their customer base.Another trend in the market is the growing demand for healthy and sustainable food options. Consumers are becoming more health-conscious and are looking for restaurants that offer fresh, locally-sourced ingredients and environmentally-friendly practices. This trend is particularly evident in urban areas like Santo Domingo, where there is a large population of young, affluent consumers.

Local special circumstances:
One unique aspect of the restaurant delivery market in the Dominican Republic is the prevalence of traditional, family-owned restaurants. These establishments often offer local cuisine and a more personalized dining experience. While they may not have the same level of visibility as larger chain restaurants, they are still a popular choice among many consumers. Delivery services can help these smaller restaurants expand their customer base and compete with larger chains.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The Dominican Republic has experienced steady economic growth in recent years, with a growing middle class and increasing levels of disposable income. This has led to a rise in consumer spending on dining out and food delivery services. Additionally, the country has a large tourism industry, which has helped to drive demand for restaurant delivery services among both locals and tourists. With the continued growth of the economy and the increasing popularity of online ordering platforms, the restaurant delivery market in the Dominican Republic is likely to continue to expand in the coming years.

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.
