But they only do it until 8pm and not on the weekend? Can that even be called a competing service to the likes of uber eats/deliveroo and if it does is that cheapest end of the delivery market where money can be made as an investor with a "premium service"?
I expect they are doing lunches! And maybe corporate catering stuff. It's probably a higher margin end of the market than evening takeaways, etc.
They are not competing against Deliveroo or Uber, they are working for restaurants who are managing their own deliveries. PedalMe is getting paid its cargo rates for doing it so they are making as good a margin on that as on any of their other business.

I don't think there is any money in food delivery to the end customer long term for them, people just don't order enough food in one go to utilize the bikes so a courier with a bag will win every time. They can pad out the hours with it to keep bikes on the road but that's about it. It's why the competition has already explored and stopped using these.
