Parts 2a. Questions from Quora
Found question
Q:
Would you buy local food (…) online to be delivered to
your house or arranged at a pick-up spot?
A:
Yes, especially if some economy of scale were achieved that made it more
affordable than traditional grocery shopping.
A :
The only way I would buy local food online is if it is the same price, or very
close to, the prices in the grocery stores. Also, the shipping would most likely
have to be free for me to even consider buying food online. However, I do not
see how online food prices will be able to compete with grocery stores,
especially when including shipping.
