The 'Chews Local' app's business model revolves around an 11 percent delivery charge, as well as an additional delivery fee of 99 cents and a [monthly fee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skip-plus) of $9 for the company's tablet-based delivery platform. By offering massive savings compared to market-leading delivery apps, the 'Chews Local' app aims to cater to family-owned and smaller businesses that cannot afford large fees and expenses that big restaurant chains can. Estimated to be able to save restaurants over 10 percent on each delivery, the 'Chews Local' food delivery app could be a vital tool for Moncton-area restaurants looking to take advantage of the delivery model while recovering their margins in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
