DoorDash
FeaturedYour favorite restaurants, delivered.
Founded in 2013 by Tony Xu, Stanley Tang, Andy Fang, and Evan Moore, DoorDash began as a small food delivery experiment in Palo Alto after the founders interviewed local business owners and discovered the massive demand for delivery services. Today, DoorDash is the largest food delivery platform in the United States with over 67% market share, operating across 27 countries and partnering with over 700,000 merchants. The company went public in December 2020, raising over $3.4 billion. Beyond food, DoorDash has expanded into grocery, convenience, and retail delivery through its DashMart service.
