We have a Whole Foods here that delivers with cargo bikes. I talked to a woman working for a cargo bike delivery company in Seattle the last time I was in the PNW. She said Portland, Chicago, NYC and Toronto are just a few of the places using cargo bike deliveries in city cores.
I see cargo bikes used for delivery in Manhattan. I also see parents transporting children in Bakfiets (not sure if that's a generic term). They are usually on a MUP -- I don't know how much they travel in road traffic (I wouldn't).
