Overview
Delivery.com is a U.S. online ordering marketplace and mobile-app platform founded in 2004 and headquartered in New York. It connects consumers with local restaurants and other neighborhood businesses that offer delivery or pickup. Its marketplace has included restaurants, wine and liquor stores, grocery stores, and laundry and dry-cleaning providers, allowing users to place different types of local-service orders through one account and interface. The service is organized around address-based discovery. A customer enters a delivery address or location, reviews the participating merchants available in that area, selects products or services, and submits an order through the Delivery.com website or mobile applications for iOS and Android. Depending on the merchant, users can order prepared meals, alcoholic beverages, groceries, or services such as wash-and-fold laundry, dry cleaning, and tailoring. Payment options described for the platform include credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Visa Checkout, and cash, with tipping available during checkout. Delivery.com operates primarily as a marketplace and ordering technology provider rather than as a restaurant, retailer, courier fleet, or laundry operator. Merchants receive order information through the platform, confirm the order, prepare the goods or arrange the service, and handle fulfillment. This model gives local businesses a digital ordering channel while allowing Delivery.com to aggregate multiple categories of neighborhood commerce. The company has been described as serving more than one million users and supporting a marketplace of more than 12,000 participating restaurants, wine and liquor stores, grocery stores, and laundry or dry-cleaning providers. Its U.S. footprint has extended across more than one hundred cities, including major markets such as Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. The brand's positioning therefore combines online food ordering with broader local convenience services rather than focusing exclusively on restaurant meals. Delivery.com also developed platform infrastructure for business and technology partners. Its developer API enabled outside services and applications to access participating merchants and support online ordering. Named integration partners have included WeWork, LevelUp, BringMeThat.com, Menuless.com, Zipongo, and Foodme.io. In February 2016, the company announced an integration with Foursquare, extending ordering functionality into a local-discovery environment. The company briefly operated beyond the United States. Delivery.com entered Hong Kong in 2014, but its Hong Kong assets were sold to Foodpanda in 2016, ending the company's international business according to the cited reference. Delivery.com is therefore principally identified with U.S. local delivery and ordering services. Publicly available reference material does not establish a founder, parent company, current executive leadership, ownership structure, listing status, or financial performance.
History
Delivery.com was established in 2004 as an online ordering business focused on connecting consumers with local merchants. Its initial proposition centered on restaurant ordering, but the platform developed into a broader local-commerce marketplace. Rather than preparing meals or employing the businesses that supply the goods and services, Delivery.com provides the digital interface through which customers discover participating merchants, submit orders, and select payment and fulfillment preferences. The platform's address-based operating model is central to its service. Customers first provide a location, after which the site or mobile application identifies merchants able to serve that area. The available marketplace has included restaurants, wine and liquor stores, grocery stores, and laundry and dry-cleaning providers. In addition to prepared-food delivery, customers have been able to request wash-and-fold services, dry cleaning, and tailoring. Orders may be fulfilled through delivery or pickup depending on the merchant and service selected. Delivery.com has supported ordering through its website and applications for iOS and Android. Its checkout infrastructure has accommodated credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Visa Checkout, and cash, while also allowing customers to add a tip. Once submitted, order details are transmitted to the selected merchant. The merchant confirms receipt, prepares the food or goods, or arranges the requested service and delivery. This division of responsibilities makes Delivery.com primarily a marketplace and software intermediary rather than a producer, retailer, or universal logistics operator. As the marketplace expanded, the company described its network as covering more than one hundred U.S. cities and including more than 12,000 restaurants, alcohol retailers, grocery stores, and laundry or dry-cleaning providers. Major cities cited in descriptions of its coverage include Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. The service has also been described as having more than one million users. These figures are presented in the available reference material without a separate reporting period. Delivery.com also pursued distribution through technology partnerships. Its open developer API allowed external companies and applications to connect to participating merchants and support online ordering. Examples identified in reference material include WeWork, LevelUp, BringMeThat.com, Menuless.com, Zipongo, and Foodme.io. This partner strategy extended Delivery.com's reach beyond its own consumer website and applications. In February 2016, an integration with Foursquare connected ordering capabilities with a local-discovery platform, allowing users to move from discovering local businesses to placing orders. The company made an international expansion in 2014 by entering Hong Kong. The move was short-lived: Delivery.com later sold its Hong Kong assets to Foodpanda in 2016. That transaction ended the company's international business as described by the cited source and left the United States as its primary operating market. Delivery.com's competitive environment has included other online food-ordering and local-delivery services such as Grubhub, Seamless, Eat24, ChowNow, Uber Eats, Postmates, and DoorDash. Its differentiation has rested on category breadth, local merchant aggregation, and ordering infrastructure that covers food alongside alcohol, groceries, and laundry-related services. The available sources do not provide reliable information about the company's founder, current executives, corporate ownership, financial results, or changes in its current market footprint.
