What's the difference between pizza and other delivery based business making such high margins ?

there isn't a lot of money in delivery. Uber is trying to get 20% margin. And pizza delivery is break even at best. you charge $2.50 and if someone makes 2 deliveries during a slow hour ($5 or more after taxes, insurance etc.)
