Across the U.S. and Canada, UberEats has created a policy to support 100,000 independent restaurants: a “no delivery fee,” and marketing campaigns to support local restaurants.
By creating the no delivery fee, UberEats is encouraging people to order takeout from local, independent restaurants who will undoubtedly suffer much more than large, established chain restaurants. I don’t know about you… but I am definitely more likely to order from a restaurant that has free delivery than one with the standard delivery cost!
UberEats is also generously supporting first responders and healthcare workers during this time, by committing to provide 300,000 free meals throughout the United States and Canada.
