We met with Doorstep Delivery - Restaurant Delivery Service owner Roberto Crane at their offices located at 2511 W Columbus Dr, Suite B in Tampa to learn more about this food delivery service. According to Robert, the business has, "Technically been operating since 1999 and been in the Tampa Bay Area since 2009." The first location was in Gainesville, the second location opened in Tallahassee, Tampa was the 3rd or 4th location followed by Orlando and Jacksonville. In 19 markets total with the most recent opening in Indianapolis and Charlotte, Robert said Doorstep Delivery is always looking to expand into new markets.
Crane said, "I think we're positioned as a national brand but operate like a local small business. This allows us to deliver to single moms and hungry parents, and allows us to aid them by assisting with a service that is convenient and swift in response time." His mission, "To make sure we partner with the best restaurants, and from the consumer side be the fastest and most convenient service out there." We asked, "What do people say they like most about Doorstep Delivery?"
