Abstract: The online food delivery service is an important connection of the traditional catering industry with the new Internet format, as well as an important new form of consumption. In just a few years, the online food delivery industry has grown from scratch and developed from small to large scale, with the market getting gradually mature. The user scale and transaction of the platform have repeatedly broken records.
