# Deliver It! Restaurant Brokers Examine Restaurant Delivery Models
Posted by [WSR Operations](https://blog.wesellrestaurants.com/author/wsr-operations) on Jan 21, 2016 4:21:16 PM
**January 21, 2016** – Takeout and delivery service has become the nation’s most popular way to serve its hungry customers. Next week the restaurant brokers are going on the run to talk to delivery experts about what makes this trend so popular. What is the secret on running a successful delivery service? Join the restaurant brokers we as explore America’s guilty pleasure... Takeout food!
Jennifer Pete, Vice President and Partner at Zifty, a multi-million dollar food delivery service explains the challenges associated with delivery for customers. She says, ““Customers want it fast and they want it hot!” These experts agree that making delivery a successful part of the restaurant business is tough since “There are a lot of moving parts.” Customers want their food quickly, they want it at the correct temperature (whether hot or cold) and they don’t want excuses about why it didn’t show up. Jennifer tells the restaurant brokers that delivery agents deal with “rushes the same as a restaurant faces” meaning everyone wants their food at 7:00. Managing the delivery flow can be a logistical challenge.
The show’s second guest, Chef Jessica Swift leads a personal chef delivery service based in D.C. She says that just working around the President’s motorcade is a challenge in and of itself. Should restaurant owners do their own delivery? These guests says no and cite the fact that “delivery is its own business.” They cite the need to get drivers on board, used to the roadways and properly insured are just part of the reasons why this particular part of the restaurant business is better off outsourced rather than performed in house.
Join the restaurant brokers and their guests as they discuss the secrets on running a successful delivery business. Tune into the entire [restaurant radio show](https://www.wesellrestaurants.com/radio_show.php) on GLN the Good Living Network next week, Monday at 2pm EST and Tuesday at 9PM EST.
