Introduction: the rise of quick commerce – thoughts on transformation in the food delivery sector and in consumer expectations  \nThe Covid-19 pandemic and the restrictive measures associated with it accelerated pre-existing trends towards a partial transition from traditional shopping to online shopping, as well as the emergence of new e-consumption practices, particularly in markets where online offerings are the most developed (Delberghe et al., 2022) . Nevertheless, according to data from e-Marketer for the year 2022, several emerging countries have now embarked on an accelerated catch-up phase, with year-on-year growth levels exceeding 15%(India, Indonesia, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, etc.) .  \nAfter more than a decade of e-commerce development, e-commerce pure players and e-marketplaceshave experienced spectacular growth, leading to the spread of new methods of organization and new delivery practices, especially for consumers. In addition, conventional physical stores have also changed their practices – a trend greatly amplified by the pandemic – towards greater diversity in sales methods and sales channels and more multi-channeling (combination of an online presence and physical stores in which online purchases and offline purchases are processed separately) or even omnichannel trading (integration of online and offline sales channels within the same process, notably with the possibility of buying online and collecting purchases in-store or ordering items in-store and receiving them at home) .  \nThis gradual digitization also applies to the sale of food products (food e-commerce), which increased sharply during the pandemic (46% growth in online sales of food products in 2020, 16% in 2021), accounting for worldwide sales of 197.2 billion dollars according to data from Maximize Markets Research. The annual study published in mid-2022 by Kantar Winning Omnichannel indicates that online sales accounted for 7.2% of global food sales at the end of 2021, compared with 4.8% in 2019. Worldwide, therefore, nearly 40% of consumers made online purchases in 2021, compared with 31.6% in 2019. The transition to food e-commerce has been made possible by the implementation of new technologies (smartphones and smartphone apps have facilitated the development of m-commerce (Cullinane, 2009)), by the arrival of new players who have brought greater complexity and dynamism to the sector, and by the development of new logistics capacities (micro-hubs, small urban warehouses, dark kitchens, dark stores, etc.) (Dannenberg et al., 2010). The development of dedicated B2C platforms has also been facilitated by the use of a flexible workforce made up of often insecure self-employed workers (“uberized deliverers”,“gig workers”(Buldeo Rai, 2019; Dablanc et al ., 2017 Krier et al., 2022) .  \nNevertheless, this transition still differs greatly from one country to another: online food purchases account for 9.5% of total food sales in the United States, a proportion that is likely to exceed 20% in 2025-2026 according to data from Mercatus/Incisiv. In France, the rate was 8.3% in 2021. According to forecasts by the consulting firm McKinsey, the European online food market should pass the 20% mark by 2030 (Delberghe et al., 2022). As for the proportion of consumers who have used online sites to buy food, the rate in 2021 was 35.2% in Western Europe, compared with 88% in mainland China according to data from Kantar Wi","cbCaicNf5LODTBSv","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicNf5LODTBSv","pdf",2534270,28,"English","# Introduction: the rise of quick commerce\n## Transformation in food delivery and consumer expectations\n## Food e-commerce growth and enabling technologies\n## Omnichannel strategies and logistics organization\n## Branches of food e-commerce and quick commerce","[{\"question\":\"What is the main question addressed by the report?\",\"answer\":\"Whether the disruption of the food retail industry will happen through quick commerce, investigated via its supply chain and the impacts of dark stores.\"},{\"question\":\"How did the COVID-19 pandemic influence the rise of quick commerce?\",\"answer\":\"It accelerated existing shifts toward online shopping and new e-consumption practices, especially where online offerings were already developed.\"},{\"question\":\"What factors enabled the development of food e-commerce?\",\"answer\":\"New technologies like smartphones and apps, the arrival of new players increasing complexity, and the development of logistics capacities such as micro-hubs and dark stores.\"}]","Quick commerce - will the disruption of the food retail industry happen? | PDF",1789933624,71]
