New Roy Morgan research shows that Inner City Melbourne residents (40%) are the Australians most likely to use meal delivery services, just ahead of those in Central Sydney (39%), followed by Central Perth (31%). Other regions with high use of these services include Northern Melbourne (with suburbs such as Preston, Northcote and Coburg), Middle Southern & Eastern Melbourne (including Hawthorn, Malvern, Sandringham and Brighton) and South-West Perth (including Fremantle and Coogee). The data covers the 12 months to March 2020. Overall, around one in five Australians (19%) now use meal delivery services in an average three months, with the top four services – UberEATS, Menulog, HelloFresh and Deliveroo – all growing their market share over the past year. More than a third of Australians living in shared households, and more than a fifth of single parents and young people living with their parents, now use meal delivery services. In contrast, only a tenth of those who live alone use these services. Roy Morgan CEO Michele Levine says that even before the COVID-19 pandemic more Australians than ever before were turning to meal delivery services.
