GrabFood thu chiết khấu quán ăn bao nhiêu?
17 May, 2020
cao quá thì (cần chính quyền) áp giá trần 15% nhé, hai thành phố Seattle và San Francisco ở mỹ đã áp dụng, để bảo vệ các nhà hàng...

Uber and Grubhub are considering merging because prices they charge to restaurants are too low to support their overhead (áp 30% vẫn ko đủ chi phí vận hành, đang tính đến sáp nhập). These apps should probably be a modestly profitable regional services, connecting local eateries to local eaters, like taxicab stands or co-working spaces before WeWork. But our global monopoly-centric public policy framework has flooded capital into the space, leading to money-losing attempts to build global empires. (đáng nhẽ chỉ như ứng dụng đơn giản kết nối nhà hàng, thì tham vọng đế chế toàn cầu, đổ tiền vào trụ sở, văn phòng, đốt tiền) It’s a variant of counterfeit capitalism (chủ nghĩa tư bản giả tạo), where investors hoping for monopoly rents are subsidizing an artificial and predatory business model (hy vọng tiền thu từ độc quyền sẽ trợ cấp cho mô hình kinh doanh "thú ăn thịt").
The pandemic has put this dynamic into stark relief. Food apps are seeing a flood of new business. At the same time, the disease has changed the food service business. Most restaurants focus on takeout and delivery, because they are otherwise shut down. The restaurant industry always lived on thin margins, and these apps charge up to 30% of the total order amount. When delivery was a side business for most restaurants, high delivery app fees were manageable. But since restaurants have gone to a mostly takeout/delivery business during the pandemic, they have become dependent on this new sales and distribution channel. (Investors have noticed; KKR just invested in pizzeria software specialist Slice.)
As a result, over the past few weeks, Seattle and San Francisco fought for their restaurants; both cities imposed price caps on food delivery apps, setting a maximum fee of 15% of the total amount of the order. Seattle mandated that 100% of all tips go to the driver doing the delivery. More cities are considering acting, and there's a class-action antitrust lawsuit of consumers in New York City against these delivery apps. So that's a political response, as people decade that restaurants shouldn't have to hand over nearly a third of their revenue in a crisis to an online platform.
...There are three basic routes to address the price-setting power of a utility. The first is to allow the utility to set the price without interference from public agencies. The second is to force competition in the sector among different networks and have the price set through this competitive framework. The third is to simply set public pricing rules through either public ownership or price caps. (There are other variants, like allowing cooperatives to bargain with utilities, but they often boil down to a combination of the three routes.)
