三周前，本就硝烟弥漫的外卖大战达到高潮。其时，各大外卖平台大规模补贴消费者，关键词"免费奶茶"冲上热搜榜首，众多网友在微博上惬意的分享 着"0元购"奶茶的经历。个别城市茶饮门店订单编号有突破四位数的，排队等待自取或配送时间有超过1小时的，这是以前从未过的景象，奶茶市场可 谓"空前繁荣"。 即将又是一个周末，背靠沙发、划动手机屏幕，看着各种"好礼"、"兑换券"纷纷到账，可是无论领券或者凑单，消费者再也无法像三周前那样，在线上点 到免费的外卖。 美团、阿里、京东，三大集团在外卖市场的竞争仍在继续。只是现在，三大集团的促销更加理性，眼光更加长远。外卖大战硝烟逐渐散去，万点研究和大 家一起回顾一下之前的外卖大战，到底发生了什么，我们又能看到什么？ 外卖战下奶茶市场曾空前"繁荣" 京东这家以3C产品起家的电商巨头的加入，让外卖市场的"战争"突然"烽烟四起"。 在京东加入外卖大战之前，艾媒咨询数据显示，2024年中国消费者使用的外卖平台，美团以50.17%的占比位列第一，KFC/麦乐送/吉时送/必胜客宅急送等 品牌小程序、APP和饿了么位居第二、第三，占比分别为41.96%和40.73%（小编注释：因为同一消费者可以使用 ...

进入盛夏，外卖大战烽火又起。 7月12日周六，继月初的补贴大战后，美团和淘宝再次祭出18元起跳的大额红包，并附赠各种零零碎碎 的免单券、兑换券、抽奖券。补贴带来的后果非常明显，各平台外卖订单数量不断刷新纪录，从淘宝宣 布闪购订单数超过8000万，到美团即时零售日订单突破1.5亿，只用了一周的时间。 7月18日，市场监管总局约谈饿了么、美团、京东三家平台企业，要求相关平台企业严格遵守《电子商 务法》《反不正当竞争法》《食品安全法》等法律法规，进一步规范促销行为，理性参与竞争，共同构 建消费者、商家、外卖骑手和平台企业等多方共赢的良好生态，促进餐饮服务行业规范健康持续发展。 这是继2025年5月份五部门约谈外卖平台后，三巨头再次被约谈。 为什么外卖大战的烽火，一直从3月份持续到7月份，而且到目前为止未有停止下来的趋势？最为可能的 原因是，外卖这一业态的逻辑发生了变化，它不只是一个行业，而是成为撬动其它领域入口，而即时零 售则是各大平台今后着力的主战场。 今年2月，京东凭借"全年免佣金+骑手五险一金"的组合拳高调入场，而京东创始人刘强东更是给京东外 卖下达了利润率不超过5%的命令。尽管后来业界证明外卖行业5%的利润 ...
