Key Trends & Drivers
1. Super-apps consolidate demand for quick commerce- Quick commerce in Indonesia is increasingly routed through a small set of super-apps mainly Gojek (GoFood/GoMart), Grab (GrabFood/GrabMart), and Shopee (ShopeeFood, Shopee’s in-app grocery offers). Recent consumer surveys in 2025 show these three apps dominate online food delivery usage across generations, with GoFood, GrabFood and ShopeeFood consistently ranking as the most frequently used platforms. At the same time, GoMart positions itself as an on-demand grocery and convenience delivery service embedded in the Gojek app, rather than a standalone grocery app.
- Indonesia’s e-commerce and digital services market is highly concentrated around a few large ecosystems (GoTo, Grab, Sea/Shopee, and now TikTok-Tokopedia), which already aggregate payments, logistics and user traffic. Makes it easier for consumers to add “under-one-hour delivery” for meals and essentials without installing new apps.
- Online food and beverage spending has grown significantly, with 2024 witnessing a notable increase in app-based food orders, further solidifying the habit of on-demand delivery. Younger users, in particular, report a high frequency of use of ShopeeFood and GoFood, reinforcing the super-apps’ role as the default route to quick commerce for daily needs.
- Quick commerce is likely to become even more closely tied to these ecosystems, rather than relying on independent apps. New offerings (express grocery, pharmacy, convenience items, cross-selling from marketplaces) will likely be launched as additional tiles in existing super-apps.
- Market power is expected to concentrate among a few major platforms that manage customer discovery, data, and payment ecosystems. This concentration could limit smaller merchants’ leverage, compelling them to accept tighter commission structures and reduced promotional flexibility. For retailers and FMCG brands, “being visible” in quick commerce will increasingly mean negotiating placements and campaigns inside GoFood/GoMart, Grab, and Shopee rather than building independent demand.
- Indonesia’s largest minimarket chains (Alfamart, Indomaret) and some supermarkets are no longer relying solely on third-party super-apps; they are investing in their own apps and last-mile capabilities, offering same-day or instant delivery. Alfamart’s Alfagift platform provides instant or same-day delivery from nearby outlets, combining loyalty rewards with periodic free shipping promotions. Similarly, Indomaret operates its Klik Indomaret and Klik Indomaret Xtra apps as online supermarket extensions, offering same-day and scheduled delivery services backed by its extensive network of stores and distribution centers. Studies on these apps in 2025 highlight how they are used together with digital payments to influence purchase decisions and loyalty.
- Convenience chains are facing declining foot traffic in some urban locations and are utilizing online channels to maintain volume while expanding into smaller cities. A recent analysis of urban convenience stores has noted that players like Alfamart and Indomaret are closing underperforming outlets, expanding into new areas, and strengthening their online channels to recapture demand digitally.
- Their dense store networks provide a natural micro-fulfilment grid for same-day or < 2-hour deliveries, often at lower incremental cost than dark-store-only models. App-based loyalty and integrated wallets make it easier to run targeted promotions and bundle offline and online benefits, which academic and practitioner case studies in 2025 identify as key levers for repeat purchases in these retail apps.
- Quick commerce in Indonesia is likely to become increasingly “store-led”: many rapid deliveries in major cities may originate from nearby Alfamart/Indomaret outlets, which fulfill orders placed either via their own apps or through platform partners (Grab, Gojek, Shopee).
- This will raise the bar for new pure-play dark-store players, which must match the incumbents’ coverage and procurement efficiency without the same offline base. For FMCG companies, assortment, shelf visibility, and promo planning inside Alfagift and Klik Indomaret will become as important as in-store shelf space, since the same networks now drive both offline and quick-commerce sales.
- The early “grow at any cost” phase of Indonesian quick commerce has cooled. A 2025 academic study on the “rise and fall” of quick commerce in Indonesia documents how services like Astro and Tokopedia Now expanded rapidly in Jakarta and surrounding areas during and after the pandemic, but then faced funding constraints and rising competitive pressure, leading to closures or pivots for some players. Tokopedia, for example, ceased operations in 2024, with later analysis noting that GoTo shifted its focus toward on-demand services, such as GoMart, instead. At the same time, surviving players are attracting more targeted capital: Astro is reportedly raising fresh funding in 2025, led by a US tech giant, alongside an additional round led by Amazon later in the year.
- Following the global tech market correction, investors have become more cautious, leading to reduced capital availability for unprofitable ultra-fast delivery models. Research from 2025 indicates that funding decisions now place greater emphasis on unit economics, prompting companies to streamline operations and withdraw from non-viable business formats.
- Competition from super-apps and incumbent retailers (with cheaper customer acquisition via existing user bases and store networks) makes it difficult for standalone 15-minute delivery players to reach sustainable scale. Broader e-commerce competition including TikTok-Tokopedia and Shopee, has squeezed margins and attention, forcing conglomerates like GoTo to re-prioritise which quick-commerce formats they continue to support.
- Quick commerce is likely to consolidate around a smaller set of well-capitalised players (super-apps, a few specialised operators like Astro, and large retailers’ own apps). Expansion will be more selective by city and use case, rather than blanket nationwide rollouts. Service promises may shift from ultra-fast “15 minutes” towards more flexible same-day or time-window delivery to protect margins, especially outside core metropolitan areas.
- Investors and boards will judge quick-commerce initiatives more on their contribution to ecosystem profitability (such as cross-selling, higher frequency, and ad revenue) than on headline growth alone, which will moderate the earlier explosive expansion.
- Quick commerce is increasingly used not just for occasional restaurant meals, but also for everyday food and household tasks topping up staples, ordering snacks, and filling small gaps in the pantry. A recent working paper on online food delivery and food security in Indonesia reveals that the proliferation of delivery platforms has significantly altered how households access food, particularly in urban areas, with delivery apps now a regular channel rather than a novelty. Studies conducted in 2025 on ShopeeFood and online food delivery apps in Jabodetabek highlight how promotions, reviews, and app experience influence repeat ordering and segmentation across age and income groups.
- Strong growth in online food and beverage spending, combined with high smartphone and wallet penetration, means that for many urban consumers, ordering meals, snacks, and basic groceries multiple times a week is a practical option. The integration of digital payments and e-wallets (such as ShopeePay, GoPay, OVO, DANA, and others) into both super-apps and retailer apps, like Klik Indomaret, reduces friction for small-basket orders. Recent research on Klik Indomaret has shown that these orders are closely linked to purchase decisions.
- Merchants and SMEs increasingly rely on delivery platforms to reach customers; case studies in 2025 show small food businesses using platform tools (promotions, menus, operational support) to sustain share around campuses and dense urban clusters.
- Frequency of small quick-commerce orders is likely to rise further in Jakarta and other large cities, as consumers normalize using apps to fill micro-needs (missed ingredients, last-minute snacks, late-night orders). Policymakers and researchers are paying more attention to the implications of online food delivery for nutrition and food security; this may gradually influence regulations on fees, working conditions and the promotion of healthier options on platforms.
- For platforms, cross-selling into non-food categories (such as household, personal care, and OTC health products) will become a key growth lever, utilizing the same quick-commerce rails originally built for restaurant food.
Competitive Landscape
Over the next 2-4 years, competitive intensity is likely to rise in Indonesia’s quick-commerce segment; however, we can expect consolidation rather than fragmentation. Larger platforms will push deeper into suburban and secondary cities, leveraging the store networks of retailers and partnering with dark stores to improve coverage at a lower cost. Regulators will tighten oversight of mergers and roll-ups, given the risk that dominant platforms will control both merchant access and delivery pricing. As operating models mature, players will shift their emphasis from pure speed to cost efficiency, basket size growth, and adjunct monetization (e.g., advertising, fulfillment services). This dynamic suggests that only a few firms with deep pockets, strong ecosystem integration, and broad fulfillment footprints will capture a meaningful share; smaller independents may either specialize or exit.Current State of the Market
- The quick-commerce segment in Indonesia is characterized by a relatively high concentration of delivery activity in urban centers, with major super-apps and large retail chains leveraging both dark stores and store networks. While the broader e-commerce market continues to expand (with Indonesia’s digital payments and e-commerce ecosystem projected to reach around USD 94.5 billion by 2025), quick commerce is still developing its unit economics and infrastructure in tertiary cities. Unlike the first-wave growth of pure dark-store models in other markets, Indonesian players are integrating with existing retail outlets and food-delivery networks, meaning competition is more about reach, fulfillment cost, and platform control than simply the fastest delivery.
Key Players and New Entrants
- Leading platforms include the combined entity GoTo (via its subbrands GoFood / GoMart), Grab (GrabFood / GrabMart), and Shopee (ShopeeFood, with a marketplace-to-instant-delivery approach). Super-apps dominate because they already control logistics, payments and user base.
- In addition, retail chains such as Alfamart and Indomaret are becoming more active in quick-commerce by using their dense store footprint to fulfil same-day or instant background orders. There are also new entrants and specialist models (e.g., dark-store start-ups), but they face steep competition from the incumbents’ scale.
Recent Launches, Mergers, and Acquisitions
- A prominent headline is the proposed acquisition of GoTo by Grab, which would combine two of Indonesia’s largest delivery/ecosystem platforms. The deal is reportedly valued at around US $7 billion and is under regulatory scrutiny. Another key move: Indonesia’s antitrust authority has flagged potential monopoly risks following the takeover of Tokopedia by TikTok (a 75 % stake) in January 2024 and has given conditional approval, with ongoing monitoring until 2027. These developments show consolidation pressure in the market and a shift toward integrating delivery, payments, and ecosystem services.
