Among the leaders: DoorDash. This six-year-old San Francisco-based company now claims that its service is available to 80% of the country across 3,300 cities.
DoorDash partners with more than 300,000 restaurants, including Applebee's, Red Lobster, Chick-fil-A, Subway and White Castle, to bring their cuisine right to your home or office. To be sure, it's a crowded field, with UberEats, GrubHub and Postmates all battling for dominance. The company was started by Tony Xu, Andy Fang, Stanley Tang and Evan Moore when they were students at Stanford and couldn't find enough restaurants that delivered in their area. To date, the company has raised an astounding $1.4 billion, including $400 million in February co-led by Temasek Holdings and Dragoneer Investment Group. Other investors in DoorDash include Y Combinator, Sequoia Capital and DST Global.
