“I am incredibly excited for Grubhub to join forces with Wonder and bring more value to our diners, merchants, and delivery partners,” said Howard Migdal, Chief Executive Officer, Grubhub. “Since our earliest days, Grubhub has helped restaurants open their doors to new customers, while introducing diners to new cuisines. That’s why I’m confident that Grubhub will complement Wonder’s mission to make great food more accessible and that together we will create remarkable dining experiences for more customers across the country.”
