CHICAGO, Feb. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — GrubHub, the nation’s leading online and mobile food-ordering and delivery platform, announced today that its delivery service is available in Washington D.C. Through GrubHub’s delivery service, restaurants in Washington D.C. area, including those that did not previously offer delivery, can now expand their customer base and grow their order volume. It will also bring new delivery options to GrubHub diners.

GrubHub currently provides delivery services for more than 15 restaurants in Washington D.C., a number that will continue to grow, including local favorites such as:

• Hälsa
• Laliguras Indian and Nepali Bistro

“We’re excited to bring delivery to more restaurants in the Washington D.C. area,” said Stan Chia, senior vice president of operations, GrubHub. “But even more importantly, we’re thrilled to be partnering closely with local restaurants to help drive order volume, revenue growth and efficiency, and to bring a wider variety of choice to D.C. diners.”

GrubHub’s national scale lowers the overall cost of delivery to diners, which in turn, helps encourage diner loyalty. And when GrubHub handles the delivery, restaurants can focus on making great food. The efficiency of GrubHub’s delivery service, combined with great food, creates a win-win for local restaurants.  GrubHub’s delivery service launched in June of 2014 and has since expanded to more than 40 markets across the country.  In 2015, GrubHub announced a national delivery partnership with Fatburger, and is currently testing delivery with seven other national chains.

“Hälsa is in an up and coming area of D.C., so being able to tap into GrubHub’s large network of diners has been a great way for us to market our brand and introduce our food to more customers,” said Melissa Beazer, General Manager at Hälsa.
