Waitr Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: WTRH) (“Waitr” or the “Company”), a
leader in on-demand food ordering and delivery, announced today a
new national partnership with Denny’s Corporation (NASDAQ: DENN),
adding one of America's largest franchised full-service restaurant
chains to its delivery platform.
Under the agreement, Waitr, along with Bite Squad and Delivery
Dudes, will deliver from nearly 400 Denny’s locations from Florida
to Hawaii. In addition to Denny’s, guests can order from the
brand’s new virtual brand The Burger Den.
The debut of Denny’s expands Waitr’s delivery options, as the
popular app accelerates the promise to connect customers with their
favorite foods, while at the same time implementing several
initiatives designed for increasing customer and restaurant
service.
Waitr expanded its delivery reach in many of its top regions by
launching in more than 70 new underserved cities and towns,
extending delivery hours, and increasing its delivery zones. These
moves give customers more time to order and more choices;
restaurants the opportunity for more orders; and drivers the
opportunity to make more money.
“The addition of Denny’s creates yet a new level of convenience
for our customers looking for their favorites, especially an
early-morning meal,” said Carl Grimstad, CEO and Chairman of Waitr.
“We have moved up start times for delivery to serve those looking
for breakfast and are also staying open longer for the late-night
crowd.”
“Through this new partnership with Waitr, we are increasing
guest access to our delicious menu items across all dayparts,” said
John Dillon, EVP and Chief Brand Officer of Denny’s. “So whether
guests want delicious made-to-order meals from Denny’s or craveable
burgers and milkshakes from The Burger Den, our partnership with
Waitr further enables our guests to get whatever they want whenever
and wherever they prefer.
