CHICAGO, March 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Grubhub, the nation's leading online and mobile food-ordering and delivery platform, announced today that it has expanded its turnkey delivery service to the Detroit area. Through this service, restaurants in Detroit, many of which did not previously offer delivery, can now expand their customer base and grow their order volume by utilizing Grubhub's on-the-ground network of delivery drivers. With more restaurants offering their menus for delivery, Grubhub is able to bring a broader set of restaurant choices to diners.

Grubhub's online ordering platform has been available in Detroit since 2012 and connects Detroit area diners with more than 250 local restaurants. With the addition of Grubhub's turnkey delivery service, Detroit diners now have a growing number of new delivery options to choose from. Local favorites using this delivery service include:

"Detroit is home to a growing food scene and we are thrilled to connect more area diners to these restaurants through our turnkey delivery service," said Stan Chia, SVP of operations, Grubhub. "For restaurants, we are excited to provide them with tools and technology to reach new customers."

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 and diners.

"We love providing our customers delicious, home-cooked Italian meals that will keep them coming back for more," said Maria Medoro, owner of Cucina Medoro. "With Grubhub's technology, we are able to reach new and existing customers so they can easily enjoy our food from the comfort of their own home."

Grubhub's turnkey delivery service launched in June of 2014 and has since expanded to nearly 50 markets across the country. Recently, Grubhub announced relationships with a number of national chain restaurants, including California Pizza Kitchen, Buca di Beppo, Veggie Grill and Panda Express.
