Dundee is the smallest of the four Scottish cities we’re launching in this year, but the model fits well: compact catchment, a strong student population that drives evening delivery demand, and a set of independent restaurants and takeaways that have been bleeding margin to the big apps for years.

MealShift is the commission-free alternative. We pay per drop, not by percentage of order value. Priority zones: DD1 (city centre), DD2 (West End), DD3 (Lochee) and the surrounding inner postcodes.

Why Dundee makes sense

Dundee’s geography is the city’s biggest advantage for per-drop delivery. Most of the relevant catchment fits inside a 10-minute drive. That keeps the per-drop fee low and the delivery time short, which is what customers actually care about.

The student population at the University of Dundee and Abertay drives a strong evening delivery economy from Tuesday through Sunday. Restaurants that own their direct-order channel (their own website plus a per-drop courier underneath) keep both the customer relationship and the margin, instead of giving 30 percent of every order to an app.

What we’re charging in Dundee
