I am starting a business that will offer outsourced delivery service to restaurants that do not currently offer delivery. There are currently companies on the web that put restaurants menues online who all ready deliver. This is an affiliate type model and might be something we also do but fundamentally I want to build a delivery service that restaurants that do not currently have delivery can offer to their customers. The web site functionality will be very very similar.
Here are just a few:
Only competitor:

Very close behind them but still affiliate model:

There is also companies like which are the same:

Others:

You can see the basic functionality I am looking for here by exploring these web sites.
I am looking to go live with 10 restaurants and have 30 live by the end of the year. I am expecting 3 orders / day / restaurant. This give you an idea of volume. Obviously I want to grow so the site should be scalable keeping in mind that maybe at first we manually put the menues online whereas in phase 2 we have an admin screen to users instead of developers can control the whole site.
