Restaurant ordering in Wood Buffalo: what the numbers say
Wood Buffalo grew 1.0% between 2016 and 2021, a steady rate. In a settled market, repeat customers are what keep a restaurant busy, so offers for returning guests and easy reordering matter more than chasing new reach.
Wood Buffalo covers 60,844 km² at only about 1 people per km², so many addresses sit far from any restaurant. Draw delivery zones around the neighbourhoods you can actually reach in time, and promote pickup to everyone else.
