With concerns over the rise of third-party delivery apps prompting restaurants and consumers to seek more equitable alternatives, a new company that recently arrived in San Diego is aiming to make the home food delivery process a friendlier one all-around. Launched during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, Locale got its startstarted in the Bay Area delivering sought-afterdesired items from bakeries, restaurants, andas well as specialty food stores such as like Manresa Bread and Wise Sons Deli. andThe hasbusiness since then expanded to Los Angeles where it’s, delivering bestsellersitems from acclaimeddiffferent spots likeincluding Porto’s Bakery and Langer’s Deli.

Its model does not require a sign up fee, which enables restaurants and businesses to be able to participate more readily and reach beyond their standard delivery radius: Locale uses its own in-house drivers, whose coverage spans from Oceanside to National City. The catch is that rather than focus on-demand meal delivery and instant gratification, Locale bundles all your orders into one box, which gets delivered weekly on Fridays for a flat rate of $5. There is no minimum order charge or membership fee, and prices are pretty much comparable to what you’d pay in-store.

Co-founder Jonathan Friedland said in an interview:

It’s very rare that someone would order from just one business. This is a way for people to discover new food. We also want to keep customer trust. The businesses on (our app) are quality, they’re vetted. We get about a hundred applications a week for businesses to be on Locale, and we accept maybe two or three. We try to keep it very curated by asking customers what they want and getting those businesses on our platform.
