Gopuff is open 24/7 in many markets and late-night everywhere else to bring customers what they need when they need it most. Gopuff was founded in 2013 by co-CEOs Rafael Ilishayev and Yakir Gola when they were college students at Drexel University. The Philadelphia-based company now operates more than 600 micro-fulfillment centers in more than 1000 markets across the United States, including Chicago and its suburbs. It has raised more than $3.4B in funding.

Relay Delivery

Relay is on a mission to make food deliveries better. Relay was founded in NYC in 2014 by Alex Blum (CEO) and Mike Chevett (CTO) who noticed a major gap in operations for restaurants who relied on their own in-house couriers to make deliveries. With the emergence of “Big Delivery” and exorbitantly high fees for restaurants, our services are even more imperative to help operators keep their costs manageable. Relay offers restaurant owners an easy way to optimize their delivery operations all while regaining control over their businesses output and financial health. Today, we work with thousands of restaurants (SweetGreen, JustSalad, Tacombi, Papa Johns, just to name a few) to deliver over 25,000 orders per day. We are headquartered in NYC and operate in the NYC metropolitan area, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Chicago, and Miami.
