Launching the Future of Autonomous Delivery with Cruise Automation

At DoorDash, we’ve always viewed delivery as the intersection of a math problem and a human problem. Experimentation is in our DNA. That’s why today, we’re pleased to announce our partnership with General Motors’ Cruise Automation, an industry leader in autonomous vehicles. Starting in early 2019, DoorDash and Cruise will test the first food deliveries using autonomous vehicles in San Francisco. Together with Cruise, we’re looking to answer three primary questions: What key technical and infrastructure challenges exist with autonomous delivery? How can autonomous delivery positively impact merchants, dashers, and customers? Are autonomous vehicles capable of achieving the same quality standards DoorDash customers have come to know and love? We’re kicking off our pilot in San Francisco, a complex and intricate city where Cruise has been testing vehicles for the past three years. To begin, we’ve built a runner system to move orders from the merchant to the autonomous vehicle. Then, the customer will be notified when the autonomous vehicle is approaching the customer address. In partnership with Cruise Automation, we look forward to scaling and improving the delivery experience for our merchants, dashers, and customers. Curious to learn more about the future of last-mile delivery? Join our team to help us decide which new technologies we should pilot next.

Your Groceries, Now Delivered

By Christopher Payne, Chief Operating Officer We’ve all been there: you’ve started to make dinner, when suddenly it hits you. You’re out of olive oil. Do you drop everything for a grocery store run? Luckily, that’s no longer necessary — now you can get your groceries delivered right to your door. As of today, we’ve teamed up with Walmart to power their online grocery delivery. Thanks to DoorDash Drive, our innovative fulfillment technology, Walmart now has the keys to DoorDash’s expansive fleet of Dashers. Kicking things off with deliveries in the Atlanta metro area, we’ll continue to expand our reach with Walmart across the U.S. so that everyone can experience the convenience of grocery delivery — whenever they need it. Whether you’re shopping for that missing ingredient or need a whole refrigerator’s worth of groceries, simply place your order online at Walmart.com/grocery or on the existing Walmart Grocery App, switch to the Delivery tab, and select a delivery window at checkout. After items have been hand-selected by Walmart’s personal shoppers, a Dasher will deliver your order to you during the delivery window you selected. It’s that easy. We’re excited to take the convenience you already know and love from DoorDash one step further with grocery delivery. So save a trip to the store and say goodbye to unloading all those bags of groceries from your car — and get ready for a time back to do something you love.
