DoorDash on Monday unveiled a new direct-to-your-door grocery delivery service in New York City. The company promises “ultrafast” deliveries in 15 minutes or less from a new DashMart location in New York City’s Chelsea neighborhood, with more locations coming in the next few months, according to a DoorDash blog post.
The DashMart location is open daily from 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. and offers customers a selection of groceries, household items, frozen foods and local products.
DoorDash also said that the new delivery service will rely on employees instead of independent contractors, unlike the main DoorDash platform. DashMart deliveries will be operated by DashCorps, a mix of full- and part-time employees with fixed schedules who will be paid $15 an hour, plus tips, according to the company.
