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 Slovenia has been growing steadily in recent years, with an increasing number of consumers opting for the convenience of having meals delivered directly to their doorsteps.

Customer preferences: Slovenian consumers are increasingly looking for healthy and convenient meal options that can be delivered quickly and easily. As a result, there has been a rise in demand for meal delivery services that offer a range of healthy and nutritious options, including vegetarian and vegan meals. Consumers are also looking for meal delivery services that offer a wide range of cuisines, including traditional Slovenian dishes as well as international options.

Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the Meal Delivery market in Slovenia is the rise of mobile apps that allow consumers to order meals directly from their smartphones. This has made it easier than ever for consumers to order meals on-the-go, and has also led to increased competition among meal delivery companies. Another trend is the rise of meal delivery services that focus on sustainability and environmental friendliness, offering biodegradable packaging and locally sourced ingredients.

Local special circumstances: Slovenia is a small country with a strong culinary tradition, and this has led to a focus on high-quality ingredients and traditional cooking methods. As a result, many meal delivery services in Slovenia focus on using locally sourced ingredients and traditional recipes, which has helped to differentiate them from larger international meal delivery companies.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The growth of the Meal Delivery market in Slovenia can be attributed to a number of underlying macroeconomic factors, including a growing middle class with increasing disposable income, a rise in the number of people working long hours and looking for convenient meal options, and an increasing focus on health and wellness. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the growth of the Meal Delivery market in Slovenia, as more consumers are opting to stay home and order meals rather than dining out.
