What started as a classroom project at Stanford University in 2013 has become something much bigger: a mission-driven journey to empower local economies around the world, one order at a time.
DoorDash and Wolt recently surpassed 10 billion lifetime orders globally.* Behind each of those billions is a small moment that means something big: a busy family getting dinner on the table, kids celebrating Mother’s Day with fresh flowers from a local florist, or a Dasher being able to generate earnings when and how it works for their busy schedule.
We’ve always believed that when local businesses thrive, communities thrive. That belief has guided us from our very first delivery to this milestone today. Over the years, we’ve evolved from a U.S. restaurant delivery platform into a global engine for local commerce, building a full suite of innovative tools for businesses, launching new categories like grocery and retail, and expanding into more than 30 countries. We’ve done this with a clear purpose in mind: to help businesses of all sizes grow, help Dashers earn extra money to reach their goals, and give consumers access to the best of their neighborhoods.
More than 20 million Dashers have helped deliver these 10 billion orders. That’s 20 million individuals who’ve chosen to earn on their terms, supported by our commitment to flexibility, access, and innovation, like our new first-of-its-kind Portable Benefits program and ever-expanding earning opportunities.
In 2024 alone, we helped businesses generate nearly $60 billion in sales. Whether through our Marketplace, our white-label delivery solution DoorDash Drive On-Demand, or self-serve ad tools, we’re proud to provide the infrastructure that helps local entrepreneurs compete and win in a digital-first world.
Our commitment to our value of being customer-obsessed shows up in every feature we build and every decision we make—from keeping fees low with DashPass and Wolt+, to expanding into new categories like grocery, retail, and beauty, to obsessing over on-time deliveries and order accuracy. We don’t just move things—we move people, ideas, and communities forward.
Together with our consumers, partners, Dashers, and DoorDash and Wolt team members, we’ve helped shape a new era of local commerce. And we’re just getting started.
Thank you for trusting us to be a part of your business, your routines, and your lives.
