Taco Bell launches delivery service across 200 locations in the US

Taco Bell, the Mexican Chain is planning to start delivery services at around 200 outlets in three cities in the US.

The fast food chain has partnered with Palo Alto-based tech start-up DoorDash to roll out deliveries at its outlets.

Taco Bell has started the testing delivery services at around 200 outlets in Dallas, Los Angeles, Orange County, Calif., and San Francisco Bay markets.

After placing order on the Palo Alto, DoorDash will put in the order at the nearest Taco Bell, pick it up and drive it to to the preferred location.

The app will also notify Taco Bell customers when the DoorDash driver is nearing their home or office.

According to USA Today, there's no minimum order, but a $3.99 flat fee is added. However, Taco Bell officials declined to detail how much DoorDash is being compensated as part of the deal.

“During limited testing at stores in Dallas, Orange County, Palo Alto and San Jose, Calif, orders took roughly 38 minutes from when they were ordered to arriving at the customer's door,” said Tressie Lieberman, VP, Innovation and on demand, Taco Bell.

The company also mentioned that it will also promote its delivery on Periscope, Snapchat and Twitter in the coming days as delivery the number one thing demanded by the customers.
