DoorDash is partnering with Facebook Marketplace so shoppers can have orders purchased on Marketplace delivered right to their homes — so long as the goods can fit into a car trunk. This collaboration comes as both companies are working to expand their markets — Meta wants to attract a younger user base on Facebook, while DoorDash wants to continue branching out into delivering more than just food. 


Closing Bell

DoorDash Teams Up With Facebook Marketplace

yeah, we'll be watching that one. Meanwhile, meta and doordash are teaming up for a new delivery partnership, doordash drivers are now delivering items purchased through facebook marketplace, allowing users receive those items without leaving their homes. Doordash drivers will be able to deliver the items that fit in a car trunk no more than 15 miles apart. The partnership is an attempt by both companies to expand their footprint, meta wants to attract a younger user based facebook, while doordash wants to continue branching out into delivering more than just food and taking a look at shares of both of the companies on the news, it looks like meta is actually up about 1.37% today, Doordash dale down for actually about 3/10 of a percent kristen this is interesting because most of what I've used facebook marketplace for and what I've heard it being used for with friends was for furniture, so I feel like it's a missed opportunity, that is only things that fit in the trunk of a car and not necessarily in bigger vehicles because I feel like that would be a huge opportunity and kind of the bend diagram of where those two partnerships makes sense. It's so funny that you say that because that's exactly at least what I see on my facebook marketplace as well and I don't know, you know, doordash delivery people at least here in the city asia, they're often going around on bikes, they've got kind of like their backpack cooler, you know, to be able to transport some of these different goods and services namely food and alcohol. Um, but we'll wait to see whether or not the actual delivery mechanism changes with this. I think we did stories even several years ago, just like some of the oddities right, that would exist on facebook marketplace. So I'm interested to see where this goes. I know I just, I picture someone in new york on a bike or like riding a scooter and being really um experimental with how they transfer furniture, um, and being able to do that through this partnership. So we'll watch to see if they expand anymore.
