DoorDash partners with Wonder in $425 million deal to expand food delivery and campus dining
DoorDash has entered a partnership worth $425 million with Marc Lore’s food tech company, Wonder. The agreement includes DoorDash acquiring Grubhub Campus Dining for $300 million and contributing an additional $125 million to Wonder's ongoing Series D funding round. Wonder operates ghost kitchen food halls designed for delivery, aiming to streamline fast casual dining by offering multiple restaurant options in one location. Founded by e-commerce veteran Marc Lore, Wonder has been expanding its presence through acquisitions like Grubhub and several New York City-based restaurants. The partnership is intended to help DoorDash scale the Campus Dining service beyond universities into venues such as stadiums and hotels. Wonder currently operates 157 locations across the U.S., with plans for expansion in Texas by early 2027. DoorDash co-founder Tony Xu emphasized that this move will enhance choice and convenience for users while improving operational efficiency at partner institutions.
