Yes, businesses can partner with Dashers for grocery delivery. Let DoorDash help manage grocery shopping for your customers from start to finish. Here’s how it works: as soon as an order is ready to be processed, a Dasher will arrive at your location to purchase the items requested. They’ll pick out the items and get in line to pay just like any other shopper in your store, but use a special DoorDash credit card to help the process go smoothly. Then, they’ll deliver the order to the address specified by the customer.

We allow merchants to pack orders themselves. Simply pick and pack the items requested in the order, then hand it off to a Dasher for delivery.

Grocers send DoorDash inventory files, or exports from their POS systems, to update their stock on DoorDash.

DoorDash works with grocery stores as well as cheese shops, spice shops, tea shops, candy shops, olive oil shops, health food stores, produce shops, and more.

If an item is out of stock when a Dasher arrives at your location, the Dasher will contact the customer and suggest a substitution.

On the DoorDash App, grocery item prices are set by the merchant to reflect in-store pricing. As for the businesses themselves, there are a variety of DoorDash products to choose from, enabling every business to design a partnership that works best for their unique needs. There is no activation fee for signing up; for being on the app, merchants pay a commission fee that covers marketing costs, delivery driver costs, and customer service costs, and a tablet fee if they choose to use that order protocol.
