CHICAGO, March 9, 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 Pittsburgh. Through
this service, restaurants in Pittsburgh, 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
Pittsburgh since 2011 and connects
Pittsburgh diners with more than
250 local restaurants. With the addition of Grubhub's turnkey
delivery service, Pittsburgh
diners now have a growing number of new delivery options to choose
from. Local favorites using this delivery service include:
- Mad Mex
- Kaya
- Fuel and Fuddle
- Curry on Murray
"Pittsburgh has made a name for
itself as a burgeoning culinary hot spot," said Stan Chia, SVP of Operations, Grubhub. "With the
addition of so many great restaurants over the past few years,
we're thrilled to offer residents more delivery options, while also
providing restaurants with the technology and resources to easily
add delivery and reach more customers."
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.
"Our customers find it very easy to order via Grubhub's
platforms," said Bill Fuller,
Corporate Chef for Big Burrito Restaurant Group. "They are stoked
to be able to easily get delivery from Mad Mex and Kaya. We have
been happy with the service and appreciate the new customers it has
provided us."
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, Buca di
Beppo, Veggie Grill and Panda Express.
