Overall, the price point of GDS is higher than competitor The Dinner Ladies. The average cost for a meal for 1 with The Dinner Ladies is $15.00, whilst their meals for 2 range from $12.00 – $27.00. The Dinner Ladies family meals range from $15.00 – $42.00. However, GDS’s meal boxes appear to be good value for money due to the number of serves they provide. Buying ingredients to prepare a family lunch for 6-8 people adds up very quickly these days, so GDS’s ‘Family Get Together’ box for $124.00 (serves 8), is a cost-effective option when catering for large groups, working out to be $15.50 per person.
