Assuming they made a go of it, they did so when there were a lot fewer people living downtown, and at a time when the car ruled at least as much (though arguably more so) than it does today.
I recall that back in the 1960s and 1970s they did considerable delivery business for people who did not own cars. That was when people still went downtown to shop.
