TORONTO, Canada — DoorDash Canada unveiled its year-end trend report highlighting the top foods ordered by Canadians in 2022. Using data from January 2022 to November 2022, DoorDash is sharing a snapshot of the best and quirkiest food and ordering trends to come out of this year, regionally and nationally.
“Year-over-year, a trend we continue to see increase is Canadians’ love for food,” says Shilpa Arora, General Manager, DoorDash Canada.
“We’ve seen incredible support for local restaurants with an increase of takeout and pick up options. With that comes a lot of interesting trends and consumer preferences that we’re excited to share with Canadians once again. It might even inspire your next DoorDash order!”
