Digital-to-doorstep food delivery has been on the rise for more than a decade. Operating in over 6,000 cities across 45 countries since its inception in 2014, Uber Eats contracts global couriers to fulfill orders by car, scooter, bike, and even by foot.
Uber's long-standing mission to "connect the physical and digital world with a tap of a button" coincides with their most recent drop-shipping endeavor that allows Uber Eats visitors to order direct-to-home delivery with guaranteed free shipping from brands nationwide.
