7-Eleven and Grubhub have announced a partnership to launch the delivery company’s branded convenience concept: Grubhub Goods. The new initiative offers on-demand convenience delivery to diners from more than 3,000 Grubhub Goods locations across the country.

This nationwide expansion is in collaboration with the retailer and follows a successful pilot in New York of more than a dozen Grubhub Goods locations offered with 7-Eleven in Manhattan. The locations of both firms reach the vast majority of Grubhub's diners nationwide and feature a selection of 7-Eleven's most popular convenience items, including energy drinks, ice cream, personal care products and more delivered by Grubhub drivers.

"Diners have come to expect more choices when they land on Grubhub, including convenience options, which we see as a natural extension of our marketplace and a way to bring more value to the entire Grubhub ecosystem. We've been working with 7-Eleven for years to offer their locations on the Grubhub marketplace, and it was a no-brainer to team up with the convenience leader again and bring their operational expertise and scale to Grubhub Goods,"  said Kyle Goings, Director of Growth and New Verticals at Grubhub.

Grubhub has a history of partnering with convenience stores, with Grubhub Goods the company is growing awareness for the segment to help generate more orders to convenience stores and restaurants overall on Grubhub. Diners who order convenience items on Grubhub place more orders from restaurants in the following month than those who do not order convenience items.

To celebrate the national launch of Grubhub Goods with 7-Eleven, Grubhub is offering customers 50% off on orders of $15 or more.
