Is technology transforming food delivery? In 2018, around 45 percent of adults in the United States used online ordering to have their food delivered. The use of mobile delivery apps is growing, particularly among young adults, but the leading method of ordering food for delivery was via the restaurant’s own delivery service. The boom in food delivery has led to soaring revenues for some of the largest delivery companies: the worldwide revenue of Grubhub nearly doubled between 2017 and 2019.
Big spenders in the Big Apple In 2019, New Yorkers spent the most per capita on food delivery in the United States – consumers in the city spent around 200 U.S. dollars per capita more than those in San Francisco.

The success story When the ride-hailing company, Uber Inc., launched its food delivery spinoff ‘UberEats’ in the United States in 2014, few would have imagined it would go on to dominate the online food delivery market, overtaking then-market leader Grubhub. As of March 2024, UberEats controlled 23 percent of the online food delivery market in the United States, while Grubhub held an eight percent market share. A global market leader? Although UberEats only launched outside the United States in 2016, the company is today the leading food delivery operator globally, generating more revenues than industry heavyweights Delivery Hero, DoorDash, and Just Eat Takeaway. With more than 42 million app downloads, UberEats also ranked as the second most downloaded food delivery app worldwide in 2024 after Zepto.
With a market share of 67 percent, DoorDash dominated the online food delivery market in the United States as of March 2024. Meanwhile, Uber Eats held the second highest share with 23 percent.
