Racing on-demand delivery services to KFC

[Daniel Puchert]

We raced Uber Eats and Mr D to KFC and back

I raced Mr D and Uber Eats to KFC and took less time to buy the same food in person and get back home than both on-demand delivery services.

However, the margin of victory against Uber was slim, and both still delivered well within their claimed delivery times.

I promise you there are easier ways of getting a free dinner from the office.
But it definitely took a full tank of fuel to do the test wink wink wink

mr d is far more reliable and much quicker where i stay, uber guys are not keen to drive to my place since we're quite far into the suburb, often get drivers changing.

Has there been an time allowance for " drive and return vs buying via the apps. There is no allowance for time to log in the app, navigate the app and allow for payments which takes around 3 mins plus

Which Volvo EV?

EX30 or XC40 Recharge?

I find those percentages will vary way more on the restaurant you order from and the amount you are ordering.
There are some places that i simply do not order from via uber eats/mr d as the items would cost double the price.

Not to mentioning the tipping portion, i kind of feel you cannot leave that out, because people don't think twice not to tip the staff at the restaurant, but they always feel obliged to do so for the uber/mrd drivers...rather unfair, but it is what it is

KFC getting expensive. R80 something for a tiny burger, one or two chips and a coke.

Almost 38% more expensive in the name of convenience when using a delivery service

On more than one occasion with a hefty hangover I have needed to order something greasy stat! Would like to know who is the fastest.

This yes, important.

What is your hourly salary? Does the 38% over the time taken cover it? People forget that time is the most valuable resource we have.

Do a test to buy a milkshake and see if it arrives without being spilt!

Fuel cost on the self drive is flaued. What's the full rate per KM for the Sonet?

The aspect of 'Racing on-demand delivery services to KFC or any restaurant that offers delivery' that may be deemed monotonous is that these are core elements emphasized by customer service providers, particularly for well-established franchise operators. These services are typically governed by major brand policies outlining standard requirements established by franchisers, rather than by formal regulations, universal standards, or service-specific requirements that depend on the individual service provider. Such considerations are predominantly based on the service provider's protocols rather than the endpoint of the service or the methods employed to deliver it. The process involves two primary services, one of which seeks to enhance the satisfaction at the endpoint. For instance, when collecting an order from any nearby restaurant—be it Uber Eats, Mr D, or another delivery platform—do you anticipate that the service will prioritize the order first, or do you expect to receive your order before theirs?...
