It seems like the program has some issues to iron out, but the general concept is really compelling. Being able to group both the supply and demand side of delivery systems could make it really efficient. When you increase driver productivity like that it should leave room to increase their wages, so hopefully that happens here.
It would be great to see programs like this in the US. The closest I can think of is MealPal, where they simplify logistics by having each restaurant only focus on 1-2 dishes so they can churn them out incredibly quickly. I know Marc Lore's Wonder is also trying something similar with ghost kitchens, but don't know much of the details. Being able to serve more people with the same store space also cuts down on the fixed costs/person. I enjoy cooking, but it is hugely inefficient for everyone to do it for themselves at a civilizational level. If we could make healthy restaurants cost competitive with home cooking, it would probably equate to trillions in saved time.
