Why is delivery so popular? Hint, it’s easy.

This week’s episode of the Restaurant Business podcast A Deeper Dive features Cameron Watt, the president and CEO of Intouch Insight, to discuss the firm’s recent study for Restaurant Business on third-party delivery at restaurants and convenience stores.

Intouch Insight is a customer experience consulting firm that works with companies across restaurants and retail. It uses secret shoppers to provide insights into a wide variety of issues, and recently examined service by the three major delivery companies: DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub.

The results were fascinating. We discuss those results and why consumers appear satisfied with their delivery services. We talk about speed, accuracy and, most important, ease of use. We also talk about why delivery from restaurants appears to be better, by a fair bit, than delivery from convenience stores.

And we take a bit of a side trip to talk about growing competition between fast-food chains and convenience stores.

We’re talking delivery on A Deeper Dive, so please check it out.
