Third Party Delivery- Running the Numbers to Keep Profits from Walking Out Your Door

Room 2

2:00 pm – 2:40 pm

Today only 37% of restaurant prepared food is consumed on-premise. Consumers love third party delivery services–but they aren’t using them to look for you– they’re using them to look for options. Restaurant operators need a strategy to ensure third-party delivery orders are as profitable for the restaurant as they are for the delivery drivers. This panel discussion will help operators run the numbers on third party delivery and offer specific negotiation strategies and practical operational tactics to keep delivery models profitable for their restaurants.
