"We know our guests are busy, so we want to offer ways that make it easy and convenient for them to dine with us," said Kim Lopdrup, CEO, Red Lobster. "We're excited to expand our partnership with DoorDash as another way to grow our off-premise offerings and provide guests with an ultimate seafood dining experience, no matter where they are."
Through this partnership, Red Lobster will significantly increase its delivery footprint and ensure a best-in-class customer experience through a full integration of DoorDash into its Point of Sale (POS) system. By mid-July, Red Lobster guests in all of DoorDash's service areas will be able to place their orders through DoorDash's mobile app or website.
