3. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Foodpanda is a food delivery service that allows customers to buy food online and have it delivered
to their door via the Foodpanda mobile app or website. It is a worldwide food ordering platform
with a vast number of restaurants from which customers may pick their food. It is operating in
many cities and countries. In addition, it employs a huge number of active riders who deliver food
to customers' doorsteps.
Foodpanda Bangladesh Limited was founded in Bangladesh in December 2013 by a German
corporation. Rocket Internet, a European internet corporation recognized for establishing startups
and owning stakes in various models of the digitally retail industry, was the first to launch it. But,
on February 13, 2017, it sold the international brand Foodpanda to Delivery Hero, a German
competitor. Following the acquisition, Foodpanda was combined with Foodora, another online
food delivery business, and underwent a major rebranding.
Our professor assigned us the task of writing a report on the service quality dimension analysis.
As a result, we chose Foodpanda as the topic for our term paper. After conducting a Foodpanda
survey, we wrote about the industry analysis, quality dimension, customer satisfaction, and data
analysis. The purpose of this study is to justify Foodpanda Bangladesh Limited's current customer
satisfaction and compare it to their previous data to see how their performance has changed.

2. Industry Analysis
2.1 Food delivery Industry
Food delivery Industry is a courier service which facilitates customers to order food items via
mobile app or websites. Food delivery companies are in partnership with several restaurants,
cuisine, or grocery shops.
2.2 Bangladesh’s Food Industry Journey
Restaurant chain concept was a very unfamiliar term before the 2000's. There was lack of
competition and hence only few Chinese Restaurants were operational in elite areas of Dhaka. Due
to the central zone of the country's business center, some restaurant facilities were established
surrounding the Motijheel area. With Respect to Bangladesh’s economic growth, the restaurant
business sector expanded over the period of time specially in the 21st
century.
The inauguration of the international chain restaurant began back in 2003 with the launch of Pizza
Hut in Gulshan. KFC came into Bangladesh in 2006. Gradually, some major QSR(Quick Service
Restaurant) like BBQ, Manhattan Fish Market, Mainland China, Herfy established their franchise
and began to expand their operation by establishing outlets in different parts of the country. Taking
advantage of this exponential growth of food industries in Bangladesh, major foodservice
providers like Foodpanda, Pathao, Hungrynaki launched their courier operation in Bangladesh and
facilitated food to the consumers doorstep with the help of information systems and utilizing
technology.
2.3 Food delivery Industry in Bangladesh
Bangladesh’s food delivery industry hasn’t yet exceeded 100 million. Compared to the South
Asian countries for Instance, India, Bangladesh’s food industry is still at its baby stage. As
expected, due to the advancement of technology and economic growth rate of China, it holds the
world top position with a market share of approximately 50 Billion USD. Next to china, about half
of its market size, the US is dominating 26 Billion USD worth of Market Share amongst the global
food delivery industry comprising a total of around 140 Billion USD.
With the increasing number of smartphone technology amongst the consumer, via app; foods can
be ordered on demand now-a-days in Bangladesh. The ride services market has boosted the process
of facilitating the increasing demand of food order in Bangladesh which is rising over the period
of time and also capable to meet future demand. In Bangladesh there are so many competitors in
food delivery industries. With the escalating competition the war has always been with the low
price, in another word discount competition. So, majority of the revenue of the food companies
come from promotional activities alongside with delivery charges and received commission from
the restaurants.

Figure 1: Comparison of Food delivery industry (Source: Business Inspection)
In the beginning, most of the food delivery companies started their business without any
commissions from the restaurants, whereas depending on scenarios on each order 25-30% charge
is imposed.
2.4 Economic Condition Analysis
Technological advancement and change in lifestyle have overall shaped the perception of people
and that’s why an unprecedented surge has impacted the overall growth of food demand via
delivery services in the recent years especially in Dhaka and few other cities of the country. Higher
buying capability and busy working hours have made most of the people compelled to purchase
food from online to save important corporate hours. Currently four companies including Pathao
food, share 90% of the market, leaving rest for the others. Now the online delivery market has
reached sales worth of $10 million.1
It is estimated that by 2025 market will cross $5 Billion. On
an average approximately 25,000 food orders are being delivered currently on daily basis.
Additionally, this has increased employability of a total of 3500 delivery person who are involved
in the food delivery industry as an employee or freelancer (Muntasir, 2019).
● FDI inflows: There has been recent foreign direct invest in Bangladesh which is uprising
over the years. The aggregate value of the e-commerce market in 2019 was USD 1,648
Million which will increase to USD 2,077 Million by 2020 and expected to reach a market
potential of approximate value of USD by 3,077 Million. (Statista, 2019). Recently, Daraz
which is a concern of Alibaba group has purchased HungryNaki. Alibaba as a foreign
investor acquired this and it is expected to continue backend IT and infrastructure
development of HungryNaki.
● Govt Policy: With the increased demand, government has to streamline the business
process that best defends both customer and suppliers’ interest. To do that e-commerce

8. Page | 4
Association Bangladesh(e-CAB) has formulated policy namely Digital commerce Policy
2021.
The cost per meal is still higher for restaurants. This includes upfront cost, supply chain
cost, VAT, tax payment. It is claimed by many restaurants that high commission charged
by the delivery services is harmful for their business profitability. The e-commerce
platforms are instructed to get registration done under BIN (Business Identification
Number). A proposition of central complaint tracking management system has been
proposed by e-CAB.
2.5 Competitor Analysis
Currently there are four major competitors in the Market namely Pathao Food, Food panda,
HungryNaki, Shohoj Food. In terms of orders received per day Pathao Food holds the major market
share of approximately 42%. The next share is hold by Foodpanda which is approximately 32%,
HungryNaki and Shohoj food delivery has the equal percentage of share, leaving 10% share for
the few others start up in the market. Currently, Pathao food has the highest number of affiliated
restaurants of approximately 5000, whereas foodpanda officials are saying it’s approximately 4000
restaurants in their case.
Pathao and Foodpanda has the major advantage in terms of data and technology implications which
is helping them to design better routing plan to optimize cost and timely delivery in different
locations of the country. In terms of discount, shohoz food made a successful move for which they
were able to acquire a market share of around 10% within short span of time. Additionally, in less
than a year of launching Shohoz Food signed contracts with more than 1,200 restaurants.
Some start-ups are trying to offer new types of offering for different market segment. For example,
cook-ups business model is to deliver homemade foods to the customer, additionally they sell
homemade honey, oil and several items on their web platform. Kludio is the country’s first full-
stacked cloud kitchen. They are focused on superior storage system and a optimized supply chain
solution. With their Kaas(Kitchen as a service) they facilitate zero upfront costs which is a major
deal for many people who are restaurant entrepreneurs and help them in outsourcing their delivery
logistics seamlessly.
2.6 Porters Five Forces
There are 5 forces of porter’s model that dictates whether a business model is sustainable or not
by analyzing industry competitiveness. In terms of online food delivery business these can be
termed as:

9. Page | 5
❖ Rivalry among existing firms
Based on the competitor analysis rivalry among competing firms is strong. Based on some factors
it can be defined:
● Number of competitors in the Market:
There are at least 5 popular online food delivery services such as HungryNaki, Pathao
Food, FoodPanda, Shohoz Food,etc. The competition is based on restaurant coverage and
the level of quality of service it provides to the customer. Pathao food has overall more
share in restaurant coverage, however in terms of major coverage in Dhaka city Foodpanda
is well ahead compared to any other companies. Industry is highly competitive on overall
basis.
● Growth Prospects of the market:
With the advancement of Data analytics and technological advancement the industry has
huge potential as the overall growth rate is around 10% every year. Bangladesh is receiving
FDI every year which is attracting more investors to cover the future demand in this
industry and countries economic advancement has made technology accessible to the mass.
● Availability of Substitutes:
There is no such thing as monopoly in this food delivery service industry. Consumer are
always having substitutes since the competition is fierce. People prefer to get discounts.
However, although all companies are active towards offering promotional campaigns
towards the consumer, the level playing field is also ensured.
● Exit Barrier:
Exit barrier is very low in food delivery industry, since there are lots of investment and
business loans in this industry and so many people are now getting employability. One of
the global chain Uber Eats has recently left Bangladesh, but companies can’t leave
overnight, they must follow some legal procedure according to the government compliance
to terminate their operation.
❖ Factors Affecting Threats of New entrants
There is no easy entrance to this industry since companies need to comply with strict
government directives.
● Economies of Scale:
Since services are intangible, food delivery services core strength is how they are designing
their app, hence cost associated with the app increases depending on the variation of
services they are providing. As such, they achieve economies of scale depending on how

10. Page | 6
optimized way they have designed their app and streamlined business processes
accordingly. That will give them more efficiency. So, new entrance is very difficult in this
industry since it takes time for a new entrant to build reputation.
● Regulatory and Legal restriction:
Due to recent scandals in online business, level of trust in consumer has decreased hence
people are becoming more conscious and in case of service failure they are lodging
complain against companies who have failed to provide them satisfactory services. So
government has introduced new policies and hence it creates a lengthy registration process.
Unless having huge capital and resources, it becomes tougher to stay in competition.
● Product differentiation:
In terms of food delivery services, it’s all about how they innovate new service offering.
And most consumers desire on time delivery and unspoiled food. However, the major
competition is based upon different level of discount offering. So, it’s difficult for new
entrants to sustain without any real product differentiation. (Example: Kludio, Homechef).
❖ Threats of Substitute Products:
The service providers are trying their level best to develop different potential substitute
products. For example, Foodpanda exempts their delivery charge for upto 5 orders of
customers for encouraging their app usage, however Pathao foods has reward basis
promotions. Upon reaching certain level of rewards customers can unlock different discounts
on other products like electronic gadgets, home decorations, computers, smartphones etc. The
competition in this term is Moderate.
❖ Bargaining Power of Suppliers:
The rivalry is moderate in between firms that are competing in the market.
● Switching Cost:
The switching cost is very high for the suppliers. The main investment goes behind setting
up the app and then legal expenses to validate license to run business operation in the
country. However, by affiliating with different restaurants they get commissions from the
market. That’s why they don’t require additional investment over the delivery channels. In
contrast, suppliers bargaining power is low in the industry, it’s because there are so many
restaurants and customers demand is dynamic.
● Substitutes:
Online food delivery industries have additional business that comes as substitute with the
service offering. For instance, Hungry uses separate app, foodpanda has separate app, but
Pathao has no separate app. Rather under one app they are operating ride sharing services,

11. Page | 7
parcel delivery and food delivery. Hence, there is no additional incremental cost for
individual business sector for this company.
❖ Bargaining Power of Customers:
Supplier got some sort of first mover advantage in this industry. So, brand reliability has made
majority of the customers dependent on the service offering of some major companies in this
industry. However, it depends on couple of factors that determines level of bargaining power
of the customer:
● Switching cost:
Any food service delivery providers app is free of cost, so there is no switching cost for
customers. They just need to install the desired company’s app without incurring any cost.
● Substitute Products:
There are so many service providers and customers have freedom to choose their desired
service provider like Pathao, Shohoz, Hungrynaki etc. So, their bargaining power is very
high in this perspective.
● Brand Loyalty:
Since, Customers have freedom to choose their favorite company, they will choose those
company which meets their needs and demands most. When the service sets a distinctive
competition in terms of quality and assurance, customers by their instinct, identify that
brand instantly. Not necessarily, Foodpanda or Pathao Food will remain the only brand in
Bangladesh if they can’t serve the desired level of service assurance with their capability
and resources they have. So, in terms of brand identification, customers have choices and
they spread positive WOM and become a loyal customer of that brand. So, customer has
the power in terms of brand identification.
3. A brief description of Service Quality Dimensions and Customer Satisfaction
Empirical study suggests that consumers perceive the quality of a service based on multiple factors
in a certain context or situation. Following Parasuraman et al. (1988), all these factors are under 5
broad dimensions namely Tangibles, Reliability, Assurance, Responsiveness and Empathy.
Therefore, service quality is the assessment of how a customer interprets the service through
Tangibles, Responsiveness, Reliability, Assurance and Empathy.

12. Page | 8
3.1 Tangibles
Tangible dimension denotes the physical aspects of a service. It comprises equipment, employees,
communication devices and materials that support in providing services and are visible to the
consumers. For FoodPanda in this case, the tangibles are the outlook of the website/mobile
applications, the appearance of the delivery personnel, the advertisements on pamphlets, television
and social media, order receipts etc.
Figure 2: Service Quality Dimensions
3.2 Reliability
Reliability represents the capability of the company to provide the promised services accurately.
It measures whether a customer finds the service provider dependable or not. For instance,
customers of online food delivery services like Food panda want their delivery to be timely,
undamaged and contain correct food items as per order.
3.3 Responsiveness
Responsiveness measures the desire of the service provider to help the customer via showing
swiftness in dealing with customer’s problems, complaints, queries or requests. For example, how
promptly customer representatives of Food Panda respond and try to resolve delayed delivery
issues of customer indicates the responsiveness dimension.
3.4 Assurance
Assurance is the ability of the service provider to trigger the feeling of trust and confidence of the
customers regarding their services. For example, customers of the Food Panda trusting the delivery

13. Page | 9
man to be well-trained and competent enough to deliver their orders properly is part of the
assurance dimension.
3.5 Empathy
Empathy is the dimension that embodies the individualized attention and care towards customer
specific needs and requirements as they engage in receiving the services. When a customer
complains about damaged food being delivered to him, the customer representative shows empathy
via listening to customers patiently, followed by a formal apology and a strong dedication to make
up for the service failure.
Figure 3: Customer Perceptions of Quality and Customer Satisfaction
3.6 Customer satisfaction
Customer satisfaction is the evaluation of a service being able to fulfill the needs and expectations
of the customer. It is the feeling of contentment that customers feel after receiving the service.
Technically, service quality is just a part of the bigger picture which is customer satisfaction.
Service quality dimensions specify service quality only while service quality, product quality,
pricing, situational and customer specific factors make up the customer satisfaction.

14. Page | 10
4. Methodology
Our group has decided to pursue and determine the co-relation of the food panda’s service qualities
dimensions’ impact on customer satisfaction. we have used multiple -regression for our analysis.
Multiple Regression is a method to find out the correlation between the dependent variable with
the help of two or more independent variables. While running this analysis, our main purpose is to
find out the impact of the service quality dimensions on customer satisfaction.
The formula proposes that,
 y = m1x1 + m2x2+ m3x3+ … + mnxn + b
where,
 y = the dependent variable of the regression
 m1, m2, … mn = slope of the regression
 x1, x2, … xn = independent variables of the regression
 b = intercept
4.1 Data Collection
Based on the five quality dimensions, we have set our survey questionnaires. After that we have
conducted a survey & collected a sample data consisting of 32 responses. In our survey
questionnaires, we used the 5 points ‘Likert’ scale method of survey.
It is just the degree of agreement or disagreement in a multiple-choice type format. As it does not
require the participant to provide a simple and concrete yes or no answer, it does not force the
participant to take a stand on a topic.
For 5 different attributes, we had asked them to choose the best option they prefer. In 5 Points
Likert scale, we have distributed the value of each scale as – [Strongly Unlikely= 1 point, Unlikely
= 2, Neutral = 3, Likely= 4, strongly likely= 5 points]

5.1 Interpretation
The regression has been conducted with significance level, α = 0.05
 a = 0.387423 is the point where the regression line crosses Y axis
 m1 = 0.520259, Thus, we can conclude that Assurance is positively making an impact on
customer satisfaction.
 m2 = 0.269251, Thus, we can conclude that Reliability is positively making an impact on
customer satisfaction.
 m3= -0.09874, Thus, we can conclude that Responsiveness is negatively making an impact
on customer satisfaction.
 m4 = 0.152543, Thus, we can conclude that Tangibles is positively making an impact on
customer satisfaction.
 m5 = 0.091788, Thus, we can conclude that Empathy is positively making an impact on
customer satisfaction.
We can observe the R square value to be 0.802172 which indicates that 80.22% variation in the
customer satisfaction variable can be explained by the input variables, the 5 dimensions in this
case. Also, the F significance being so much smaller than significance level 0.05 says that, the
regression model is a better fit than the intercept-only model.
6. Recommendation
Taking five dimensions of the service quality into account an analysis has been conducted. The
results of the analysis have given a result where except the dimension responsiveness, rest of
the service dimension qualities have a positive relation with the customer satisfaction. Based
on that we can recommended the following;
 As Assurance depends on many factors but the main factor that customers perceived
while getting the service, how the service has been delivered via the final staff of the
company. Thus, address that if employees deliver the service enthusiastically
customers will have less dissatisfaction. That is why we will give our staffs time to
time perks or benefits based on their performance so that they can deliver the service
according as well as motivate other staff.
 To increase the reliability of our service so that our customers can get their delivery on
time, will enhance our supply chain system by introducing a strong AI system. Our Ai
system will guide the best route for delivery of the product, also our customers can
track it.

17. Page | 13
 As for tangible dimension, we will update the features of our app from time to time
according to the trend.
 As for empathy, we will introduce a special feedback feature via apps for our
customers’ requirements. Based on those data we will try to improve our service with
more care for our customers.
7. Conclusion
For all restaurant owners, online food ordering platforms have proven tremendously beneficial to
their business. People in today's highly competitive, tech-savvy generation rarely have time to
prepare meals for themselves since they are always on the move. Consumers may purchase food
online while sitting in the comfort of their own homes or businesses. As a result, these online food
delivery services serve as a one-stop shop for individuals, allowing them to view the whole menu
of their favorite restaurants, select their favorite foods, and wait for their food to come while doing
their other tasks. These online food ordering systems, such as Foodpanda, support restaurants in
making huge profits and in establishing and boosting their brand image.
In the online food delivery service business, the research of this term paper demonstrates the
aspects that are significant to customers. Only service quality dimensions were used in this study
to investigate consumers' perspectives. Future studies should look at the compatibility of customer
and facility provider views. This will allow the industry to determine whether customers and the
organization have the same point of view on customer satisfaction concerns. However, this study
concludes that customer satisfaction alone is ineffective in establishing customer loyalty; it also
emphasizes the differences in consumer behavior. Individual differences contribute to individual
differences in online behavior.
