This is the second major retail delivery partnership announced by the company in recent days, as it transitions into its broader ‘delivery anything’ model, the company said in a press release.
Burq works with retailers from multiple industries, specialising in small- and medium-sized businesses. In addition to apparel, fashion, luxury, and sporting goods, other industries that work with Burq (and are also now open for Waitr delivery) are alcohol, food, and ethnic grocery stores carrying mainly specialty products not found in mainstream supermarkets.
“Our vision is to provide same-day delivery of a wide range of items our customers need and want. We believe this new partnership with Burq is another noteworthy step toward accomplishing our mission,” Carl Grimstad, CEO and chairman of the board of Waitr, said.
“Burq’s new relationship with Waitr will make it easier and more convenient for customers to get what they need and fast from their favourite retail outlet. Our best-in-class technology and delivery infrastructure compliments Waitr’s vast driver base that is essential to meet the demands of on-demand customers,” Salman Habib, co-founder of Burq, said.
