:"Many have structured their businesses to avoid the sort of backlash that app-based services have encountered from restaurants in large centres. Hein signs contracts with establishments in Squamish, charging them a flat rate of about $5 a day. Feastify, a food-delivery app that operates in more than 100 mostly rural communities in Canada, charges restaurants an 18 per cent commission, said co-founder and CEO Chris Thomas, up to 12 percentage points less than the reported rates of bigger players. It also has live dispatchers, who can act as go-betweens when disputes over orders arise. Rather than approving refunds when customers request them, as other services do, Feastify lets restaurants try to resolve the issue and salvage some, if not all, of the order amount. |
|||
:The small-town services have also taken a different approach to what Thomas calls “driver management.” While bigger companies tend to try to get as many drivers as possible to sign up, he said, that system won’t work well in an area where business on a Friday night may only necessitate four drivers: “Nobody’s going to be making any money, right?” Unlike app-based companies that use artificial intelligence to assign drivers, Feastify has humans doing live dispatching, which allows them to batch together orders from adjacent homes, and “micromanage” in other ways to maximize drivers’ incomes. |
|||
:To keep its service attuned to conditions in each specific market, Canuck Eats created a franchise model. For a $5,000 fee, a local entrepreneur can bring the service to their location. Canuck Eats helps with the technology and marketing, but the local owner negotiates with restaurants and drivers. So far, Tsui’s funded the venture himself, along with a $13,000 injection from Clearco’s ClearAngel program in October 2021. Tsui said he plans to bootstrap the company, but would entertain interested investors on a case-by-case basis. |
|||
:Feastify, meanwhile, is in the midst of a $3-million fundraising effort, in part to support its planned expansion. It recently launched in its first East Coast communities. Thomas said it’s secured about half of that goal. The company may eventually target communities with populations between 30,000 and 50,000, said Thomas, and may run a test in the U.S. as early as this year."

Promotional, fails WP:NCORP. As the article indicates, the business primarily operates in small cities, making most coverage local. The non-local coverage consists of PR reprints, with a couple sentences in Financial Post as an example of a type of service being the only exception. ~ A412 talk! 18:58, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

- Keep - Misleading, this is the most well known surviving successor (millions of impressions on google search per year) to the now defunct Feastify (which had doordash buy out its old name Dash Delivers) operations that spans to 100 cities in Canada, which is my next project to create a page for. Canada as a G7 country has no articles pertaining to its delivery industry, I'm taking initiative to change that. Wt2024 (talk) 23:40, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - there is literally nothing meaningful in the way of coverage and the idea (per the creator of the article) that Canada is somehow under-represented is a patent lie and laughable. Aside from that, there is maybe one single article of dubious origin that could be considered in depth and nothing else. GRINCHIDICAE🎄 02:43, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
