Amazon Spotlights the Disruptive Power of Delivery

Big names like Amazon, Uber, and Yelp are helping to spread delivery service across American cities. “The hustle and bustle in the nation’s capital can make it difficult to try all the amazing restaurants around town.” “Now, Amazon Restaurants makes it easy to skip traffic and get delicious meals from top restaurants conveniently delivered to your office or home in an hour or less.” But brands that avoid partnering with the big delivery services risk not only not being discovered by new customers, but alienating existing ones who are already using Amazon, Yelp or Uber.

Key Takeaways:

  • Arianne Bennett never foresaw her restaurant offering delivery service, yet alone multiple delivery options. After all, her Amsterdam Falafelshop concept features piping hot falafel balls fresh out of the fryer.
  • It’s certainly not a model we ever considered when we first got started. Our expectation as a restaurant is we hand you a pita or a bowl and you fix it for yourself. We’ve never even had staff people making salads or sandwiches.
  • Big names like Amazon, Uber, and Yelp are helping to spread delivery service across American cities.

“In late February, Amazon rolled out its Amazon Restaurants delivery service to many neighborhoods in the nation’s capital, expanding its earlier footprint from Northern Virginia.”
