The Challenge

A global chain specializing in pizza delivery and takeout had traditionally only used its own distribution network for deliveries, while competitors were increasingly adopting third-party aggregators. Pizza Co sought to benchmark current growth driver metrics to better understand their competitive position and evaluate potential growth opportunities, such as using third-party delivery apps to expand reach.

How Pyxis Helped

Revenue Drivers
Analysis
Used credit / debit card data to compare Pizza Co against competitors on key metrics such as total customer spend, average order value, average order frequency, and share of churned customers moving to other merchants
Insight
Although Pizza Co had undergrown other QSRs / restaurants, there was no evidence of customers ‘trading down’ to lower-cost options, indicating there was an opportunity to continue to explore other growth avenues

Channel Performance
Analysis
Used e-receipt data to compare Pizza Co’s share of sales via third-party aggregators vs. competitors to benchmark delivery channel performance
Insight
Pizza Co was heavily under-indexed to delivery apps vs. competitors. By relying on its own distribution network, Pizza Co was likely missing out on a percentage of pizza buyers that were largely / solely using third-party delivery apps to place orders
