Delivery.com is an online platform and suite of mobile apps that enables users to order from local restaurants and stores for on-demand delivery. The company currently operates in many cities across the United States.

History[edit | edit source]

Delivery.com was founded in 2004 with the goal of providing a convenient, fast, and secure way for consumers to order delivery from their favorite local businesses. The company has since expanded its services to include a wide range of businesses, including restaurants, grocery stores, and liquor stores.

Services[edit | edit source]

Delivery.com offers a variety of services to its users. The primary service is food delivery, which allows users to order from a wide range of local restaurants. In addition to food delivery, Delivery.com also offers grocery delivery, liquor delivery, and laundry and dry cleaning services. Users can place orders through the Delivery.com website or through the company's mobile apps, which are available for both iOS and Android devices.

Business Model[edit | edit source]

Delivery.com operates on a commission-based business model. The company charges a commission on each order placed through its platform. This commission is paid by the business that fulfills the order, not the customer. In addition to the commission, Delivery.com also generates revenue through advertising and promotional partnerships.
