Get Starbucks delivered: Coffee giant announces new partnership with GrubHub
View Date:2024-12-23 23:45:25
Fans of Starbucks will now have a new way to get their morning cup of coffee.
The coffee giant, along with delivery service GrubHub, announced a partnership Thursday that will make Starbucks products available on the delivery platform in the United States, bringing customers the "ultimate convenience of having their Starbucks delivered right to their door," according to a news release.
Starbucks Delivery with GrubHub will roll out to select markets in Pennsylvania, Colorado and Illinois this month, with national availability expected in all 50 states by August 2024, the companies said.
Starbucks delivery will be accessible through the GrubHub mobile app and online at GrubHub.com. Customers will be able to track their orders through GrubHub from preparation to drop off, according to the news release.
Customers will be able to order most of the Starbucks menu, including seasonal beverages and food, through GubHub, and customers will be able to customize their orders just as they would at Starbucks.
"Customer demand to get Starbucks delivered continues to increase, as evidenced by double-digit growth in the U.S. delivery business this past quarter, indicating that our customers continue to want convenience in their everyday lives,” said Meg Mathes, vice president of digital experiences at Starbucks, in the news release.
"Our new partnership with GrubHub will help fuel this growth by increasing availability of Starbucks products to GrubHub's tens of millions of customers, via a leading delivery provider," Mathes added.
“By joining forces with a beloved national brand like Starbucks, we’re offering customers more of what they want on Grubhub while strengthening our enterprise offering and growing our merchant supply in markets nationwide,” said Liz Bosone, VP of enterprise partnerships at Grubhub, in the news release.
With this partnership, Starbucks Delivery is now available on the three largest delivery provider platforms in the U.S., according to the news release.
Starbucks DEI practices under scrutiny:Florida attorney general says state will investigate Starbucks for DEI practices
Starbucks DEI practices under investigation in Florida
Florida's top legal officer last month said the state will investigate Starbucks for its diversity, equity and inclusion practices.
"So many of these DEI policies that have been pushed in corporate America that were meant to address and prevent discrimination are now pushing policies and programs and initiatives that may in fact be unlawful employment practices, in fact becoming discriminatory themselves," Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody said, while appearing on Sean Hannity's radio show in May, which Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis guest hosted.
Moody filed a complaint with the Florida Commission on Human Relations, which she said would launch a "full investigation." The decades-old commission is meant to enforce the Florida Civil Rights Act and address discrimination issues.
"We're going to make sure that this quota for hiring and programs that cause every employee to determine whether they are the problem based on the color of their skin, whether that violates Florida's anti-discrimination laws," Moody said.
The governor, an opponent of DEI programs who signed a bill last year banning such initiatives at state universities, thanked her for the work: "You should treat people as individuals, judge them based on the content of their character, not the color of their skin or their ethnicity or anything like that."
