DoorDash, revealed today a host of new grocery partners.
“We’ve made significant progress in investing in long-term partnerships with grocers of all sizes, all while remaining focused on improving quality and execution. The grocers announced today recognize DoorDash as a source of incremental growth, accelerating what we believe to be the fastest-growing platform for grocery in North America,” said Fuad Hannon, VP of new verticals at DoorDash, in a statement. “We strive to be the rising tide that lifts all boats – driving growth for retailers while helping consumers stock up on groceries whenever and however is best for them.”
The partners are:
• Cub: Consumers can order delivery from 79 locations throughout Minnesota; also added to the platform are 31 Cub Wine & Spirits and Cub Liquor locations.
• Eataly: Grocery delivery is available from seven Eataly stores, including locations in New York City, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, and Silicon Valley.
• El Super: Customers can take advantage of grocery delivery from 65 locations across California, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, and Texas.
