The popularity of food delivery services has been on the rise in Iran in recent years.
Customer preferences: Iranians are increasingly turning to food delivery services due to their busy lifestyles and the convenience of having food delivered directly to their doorstep. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the demand for food delivery services as people avoid going out to restaurants and prefer to stay at home.
Trends in the market: The food delivery market in Iran is expected to continue to grow in the coming years. One of the main trends in the market is the emergence of new food delivery platforms that offer a wider variety of cuisines and faster delivery times. Another trend is the increasing use of technology to streamline the delivery process, such as the use of mobile apps to place orders and track deliveries.
Local special circumstances: Iran has a unique culinary culture with a diverse range of traditional dishes that are popular among locals. This has led to the emergence of food delivery platforms that specialize in delivering traditional Iranian cuisine to customers. Additionally, the sanctions imposed on Iran have limited the availability of certain food items, leading to the development of local substitutes and alternatives.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: The Iranian economy has been struggling in recent years due to the impact of sanctions and the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the food delivery market has remained resilient and has even experienced growth during this period. This can be attributed to the high demand for food delivery services among Iranians, as well as the relatively low cost of starting a food delivery business compared to other industries.
