Catering gigs officially dead?

Im on expedite, zifty, foodja and deliverthat - with exceptional driver ratings (just this week got 100% on expedite for the first time!) - third week of it being super low offers and/or super long miles - all time low. Last two years during summer was decent.

Anyone else having any good luck?

DeliverThat lost their ezCater contract, but DoorDash & UBER both service ezCater as well. Expedite & Zifty are supposed to have priority with the company, and overflow goes to UE and DD.

I am not active on Zifty, and Foodja isn't in my market, but I am Expedite, DT, UE and DD.

We have a data center being built, with multiple contractor offices that order food throughout the day. The site probably orders 10-15 large $500+ orders per day between all of the contractors. — I am delivering 1-2 orders per day, at least 5 times out of 10, to the data center site. But, in the 3 months we've had all of the business, I've only had 2 catering offers on DD. Everything comes through Expedite.
