RE: Dish delivers the restaurants3 Aug 2020 11:19
As far as I can make out the old platform with yield management will stay and the BigDish-to-Go will also be on the same App/website, but accessible separately.
As far as I can make out the BigDish-to-Go is just for restaurant takeouts but not for non-restaurant takeaways.
I am not really interested in the BigDish-to-Go side of this. If you look at the restaurants - Wildwood, Pizza Hut - they have already done a deal with deliveroo, who are doing the delivery side, no doubt for a fixed fee. If anything Big Dish can actually still take the booking, letting the restaurant supply the food at the agreed price (discount or no discount) and deliveroo can do the delivery side for a set fee. Why Big Dish would want to get involved in the delivery side of it beats me. I think that this was decided before it became apparent that deliveroo are happy just to get a delivery fee for their part.
