}}DASHED is a US restaurant delivery service founded in Boston, Massachusetts by Phil Dumontet in 2009.[2] The company provides rapid delivery for over 800 restaurants that don't have their own services in Baltimore, Boston, Hoboken, New Haven, Philadelphia, Providence and Washington, DC.[1][2][3][4]

Background

The company was founded under the mission of providing the industry's fastest delivery.[5] Entrepreneur Magazine wrote it has "largely achieved that goal", citing technology, speed-based incentive systems, and diversified delivery methods. The same magazine named it as one of the Best Entrepreneurial Companies in 2015 in its augural Entrepreneur 360 list.[6]

In 2013, DASHED rolled out a fleet of electric Smart cars for its delivery drivers.[7] According to the Boston Globe, as of November, DASHED has a total of 12 company SmartCars, which are available for rent to an approved pool of drivers for $15 per 8-hour shift.[7] The microcar rental fleet is only available in Boston.

Partnerships & Expansion

The company partners exclusively with Foodler for online ordering.[8] It expanded to Baltimore in April 2013, adding 50 restaurants that don’t have their own delivery staff, including P.F. Chang's. Restaurants pay DASHED a 30 percent commission to make their deliveries.[7] Dashed was acquired by Grubhub in August 2017.[9][10]

Locations & Services

Operating in nine cities, DASHED uses a mix of bikes, scooters and automobiles to deliver food from 9:30 a.m. to 12:45 a.m. seven days a week.[3] About 25% of their orders are delivered by bike & scooter.[11] According to BostInno, DASHED brings its participating restaurants an average of $2,000 in new delivery sales per week, and some restaurants have dropped their own delivery service to hire DASHED.[3] The company introduced a 45-minute Christmas tree delivery service in Boston, which included trees, tree stands, garland, wreaths, and poinsettias.[3][12] The program was popular with corporate clients, with daily deliveries to the Prudential Center.[3]

Awards

In 2014, DASHED was named the leading restaurant delivery service in the Northeast by Inc. Magazine.[13] In 2015, it was ranked one of the fastest growing companies in the U.S. for the second year in a row by the same publication,[13] one of Entrepreneur Magazine's Top 30 Startups to Watch[14] and Best Entrepreneurial Companies,[6] and the Best in Biz Silver winner for Fastest Growing Company in the country.[15]

In January 2016, Founder & CEO Phil Dumontet was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30.[1]
