For large parts over here in Germany I don't see route sharing in food delivery as well. Some delivery drivers I can observe via GPS (could be faked, but looks plausible) and many are delivering via bike (Pedelec etc.) or scooter and have limited space to transport also when observing restaurants they often pass a single order ober as well.
This of course can be different in areas with other order frequency and other amount of restaurants offering delivery and other distances. (Don't think many orders go further than 2km here)
