This is the reason it will be very difficult for anything like the Sprig concept. Food delivery is insanely competitive and it's a race to the bottom to see who can stay in business on the smallest margin. That's usually the place that operates out of a low-rent storefront and employs family members at below-minimum wage, not a glitzy well-funded commissary with acres of stainless steel and new equipment.
