Postmates is starting to provide a lunch delivery service in San Francisco that has a specially curated list of meals each day to choose from. 'Pop' will deliver the meals in 15 minutes or less with an easy app-integrated ordering system.
A similar app called "Ritual" exists in the fashion and entertainment district of Toronto but involves users having to pick up their food. While UberEats boasts a similar service, Postmates states that 'Pop' is going to quickly move to delivering things other than only lunch at alternate times as well. For instance, the lunch delivery service wants to eventually bring couples a date night package of dinner and wine straight to your door.
With packaging made from recycled materials, compostable and locally-sourced, the new delivery app is eco-friendly as well.
