CHICAGO, March 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Grubhub, the
nation's leading online and mobile food-ordering and delivery
platform, announced today that it has expanded its turnkey delivery
service to Denver. Through this
service and with Grubhub's recent acquisition of local delivery
company Delivered Dish, restaurants in Denver, many of which did not previously offer
delivery, can now expand their customer base and grow their order
volume by utilizing Grubhub's on-the-ground network of delivery
drivers. With more restaurants offering their menu for delivery,
the service also enables Grubhub to bring a broader set of
restaurant choices to diners.
Grubhub's online ordering platform has been available in
Denver since 2010 and connects
Denver diners with nearly 600
local restaurants. With the addition of Grubhub's turnkey delivery
service, Denver diners now have a
growing number of new delivery options to choose from. Local
favorites using this delivery service include:
- The Copper Pot
- Bonnie Brae Tavern
- MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes
- Cheeky Monk Beer Cafe
- Brothers BBQ
"Thanks to a growing community of innovative chefs, Denver has become a culinary hot spot," said
Stan Chia, SVP of Operations,
Grubhub. "With the addition of local Delivered Dish
restaurants to our network, we're able to connect diners with even
more of these great restaurants, no matter what they are craving.
For restaurants, we're thrilled to provide tools and
technology that will help them reach new customers, and therefore
bring them more orders."
In December 2015, Grubhub acquired
Delivered Dish, a local restaurant delivery service designed to
serve restaurants that don't operate their own delivery service. By
combining Delivered Dish's local market expertise and Grubhub's
national scale, Grubhub has been able to accelerate local growth
while serving more Denver
diners.
"We have always enjoyed working with Delivered Dish and we were
pleased to see an uptick in orders since joining the Grubhub
network," said Nick O'Sullivan,
co-owner of Brothers BBQ. "Having a reliable partner, such as
Grubhub, to execute deliveries for us is extremely valuable. It's
clear that they care as much about their business as we do about
ours, and this has created a great partnership."
Grubhub's national scale lowers the overall cost of delivery to
diners, which in turn, helps encourage diner loyalty. And when
Grubhub handles the delivery, restaurants can focus on making great
food. The efficiency of Grubhub's delivery service, combined with
great food, creates a win-win for local restaurants and diners.
"Through Grubhub's delivery service, I've been able to reach a
whole new set of customers," said Joe
Jaramillo, owner of The Copper Pot. "It's been a great way
to increase visibility for our restaurant and allow more
Denver diners to enjoy our food
from the comfort of their home."
Grubhub's turnkey delivery service launched in June of 2014 and
has since expanded to nearly 50 markets across the
country. Recently, Grubhub announced relationships with a
number of national chain restaurants, including California Pizza
Kitchen, Bucca di Beppo, Veggie Grill and Panda Express.
