The advantages of your own solution
Building your own direct-to-consumer (D2C) e-commerce channel is an alternate or additional model for food delivery. It means owning the ordering experience of your customers from start to finish, getting increased profits and having more control. This a smart move for long-term sustainability.
Increased profit
Using your own e-commerce platform results in significantly lower commissions (or no commissions at all if you buy the solution instead of renting it) for each order, allowing you to maintain healthier profit margins. Also, you’re either paying for an in-house delivery driver or working with a delivery partner and paying a fixed fee for the service. This commission fee model is not only fairer, but it’s also particularly advantageous for your biggest orders.
