Why Stockton restaurants are switching to direct ordering
Stockton's restaurant scene is competitive. With 1,000+ restaurants serving 320,804, standing out on third-party delivery apps is increasingly difficult. Restaurants near Stockton Waterfront and Miracle Mile are discovering that owning their online ordering channel is the key to sustainable growth.
The Stockton food delivery market is evolving. Stockton's affordable housing has attracted families from the Bay Area, creating a new class of delivery customers accustomed to urban food variety in a more spread-out suburban landscape. Instead of paying 15-30% commission on every order to DoorDash or Uber Eats, forward-thinking Stockton restaurants are switching to commission-free direct ordering platforms.
Challenges Stockton restaurants face
Stockton's restaurants serve a price-conscious market, and third-party delivery commissions designed for Bay Area price points are financially devastating for restaurants operating in a more affordable city.
