The new Milton Keynes food delivery company looking to take on the likes of Uber and Deliveroo

A new, locally owned platform, MK Express, is officially making its mark in Milton Keynes and it’s here with one clear mission: to give local restaurants, takeaways and other businesses a fairer, more supportive alternative to the big national apps.

The food delivery market is fiercely competitive with the likes of Uber Eats, Just Eat, Deliveroo and others dominating.

But MK Express is hoping its foundations in the local area will give it an edge over the opposition.

The fledgling firm is locally owned and managed and built specifically to support independent businesses by offering:


✔ Lower commission – starting from just 5%, compared to 14%+ on national platforms

✔ No set-up costs

✔ No additional fees per order

✔ Weekly payouts every Monday (with instant payouts available if needed)

✔ Around 50% lower fees than major competitors – meaning more profit stays with local businesses

✔ A seamless, user-friendly ordering experience for both restaurants and customers

✔ Dedicated local support – real people, no call centres, fast help by phone or email

✔ In-person check-ins and tailored business support

✔ Constant tech improvements from a dedicated development team


MK Express say it differentiates itself from national platforms by offering something genuinely different: real local support from real local people.

The team works directly with partner restaurants, providing fast issue resolution, on-site visits, and ongoing platform development to ensure everything runs smoothly.


"The platform is designed to help Milton Keynes businesses grow without being squeezed by high commissions and hidden costs, while also giving customers a reliable, easy-to-use way to order from their favourite local spots," MK Express spokesman Rohit said.

"MK Express is more than just an app, it’s a community-first marketplace built to keep money in Milton Keynes, support independent businesses, and change the way local food delivery works for the better."
