Canadian operators are closing more locations than they open this year, and most report profits going the wrong way. The orders you already own are the cheapest revenue on the menu.

Canadians eat out about 23 million times a day, and the industry is roughly 3.9% of GDP. It is not a demand problem. It is a cost problem: 2026 is forecast to close more restaurants than it opens, and the majority of operators say profitability is going backwards while guest counts fall.
That changes which revenue is worth having. An order placed through an aggregator gives up 15 to 30 percent and the customer relationship with it. An order placed in your own app costs you nothing per transaction and tells you who placed it, how often they come back, and what brings them back. In a market this tight, the second kind of order is the one worth building for.
