Postal Letter

I would like to start a restaurant delivery service?

I will try to get restaurants to agree to sign a contract for me to deliver for their restaurants. But, what about the restaurants that don't want to sign. Can I legally order food from them and charge a delivery fee to customers without an agreement with the restaurant?

1. ask yourself this question, if you were a restaurant owner, would you trust an outsider to deliver their food.
2. I've actually used similar services before when lived in Georgia and Michigan. It seems to me that restaurants who don't deliver will be eager for a new revenue stream, such as customers who can't pick up. Which in and of itself is selling point to them. Of course, they'll probably want you to ensure that delivery of the food would happen in a timely manner. (No picking up at 9pm and delivering at 10:30 pm.) As far as I can see, there doesn't seem to be anything "illegal" about not having an agreement with a restaurant. However, I doubt that you will be getting the best, fastest service from restaurants who don't willingly participate. Start off small, if necessary, with restaurants that will participate and see how it goes from there. You can always ask royal customers, i.e. friends and family, to recommend the service to their favorite restaurants. And as an FYI, the BIGGEST users of this service were offices. Lots of luck!
3. I have a restaurant delivery service, and also I'm a "Area Developer" in the Meal Delivery Business. You can make money in the fastest growing segment of the $511 Billion restaurant business without preparing the food or having an expensive retail location! The restaurant meal delivery business is and offshoot of what Domino’s Pizza has started. While Domino's is selling an excess of $5 Billion annually of pizza, pizza or pizza, other entrepreneurs have begun to capitalize on this proven consumer desire for food delivery and convenience by delivering food for restaurants who don’t deliver themselves... Give a me a email and I can send you the information about the Meal Delivery "Business Opportunity".. bjgonzales77@yahoo.com
