Gopuff

Gopuff is a delivery company that sells everyday goods from its own stock. Yakir Gola and Rafael Ilishayev founded the company in 2013 while they were students at Drexel University. It is based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Customers order through the app or website and receive snacks, drinks, groceries, cleaning products and over the counter medicine, often in under an hour. Unlike many delivery apps, Gopuff owns its inventory and runs its own small warehouses in each city. This lets it control stock and pricing, and it sells its own private label products.

Gopuff operates in many cities across the United States. It once expanded into the United Kingdom and Europe but has since pulled back from most of those markets. It also earns money from a paid membership and from brands that advertise in its app. The two founders still lead the company as co-chief executives. Gopuff has raised several funding rounds and remains privately held.
