Are you aware of the increased appetite in the market for fast food delivery insurance? Firstly, between February 2020 and February 2021, the size of the UK fast food delivery market by customer spending rose by a staggering 128%! Secondly, 76% of those surveyed in Britain admitted to ordering fast food delivery at least once a week. Finally, over half those between 18-34 years old preferred to order their fast food via third-party apps.
As a specialist underwriter of niche and non-standard motor insurance, we at Granite Underwriting understand the growing market trend. Fast food delivery demand has increased dramatically, particularly during lockdown, and it shows no sign of slowing down. With this mind, we have looked at the benefits of offering fast food delivery insurance as a broker.
Which companies do we cover under fast food delivery insurance?
With our fast food delivery insurance product, your customers can insure their own vehicles to make deliveries. This includes deliveries for the most successful, top 3 fast food delivery companies in the UK. These consist of:
- Uber Eats Launched in 2014, this leading food delivery platform saw a 30% rise in new customers during 2020 due to lockdown. Uber eats are now valued at £22.7 billion and occupy 27% of the market share by customer spend.
- Just Eat With a 45% market share by customer spend, Just Eat was recently valued at £14.1 billion. This meant the company surpassed previous industry giants such as Rolls-Royce and British Telecom.

Why so many people want to become fast food delivery drivers
Unquestionably, fast food delivery insurance is essential for anyone considering this as a career or extra source of income. It can be a great opportunity for those willing to put in the hours, who have good people skills, and are committed to providing a first-rate delivery experience. Other positive considerations for potential drivers include:
- Multiple food delivery apps to provide delivery for – with a wide variety of apps to choose from drivers will be spoilt for choice. Drivers can even work for more than one at a time further increasing their earning potential.
- Instant pay, with increased income during boost hours – most companies now offer drivers same-day payment, such as Uber’s Instant Cashout, and a greater rate of pay during peak times meaning fast food delivery really pays off.
- Flexible working hours, with added employee incentives – with no set schedule to adhere to fast food delivery is ideal for those looking to be their own boss. This works well for students, parents, or anyone wanting to squeeze in some extra earnings at their leisure.
In short, if you work during peak times and accept the minimum number of jobs this can be a potentially rewarding income stream.
