It’s hard to believe another Super Bowl is fast approaching, now that its halftime performer is set with Jay-Z.
Every year’s championship game has its standout commercials, with Instacart making its mark during the 2026 event thanks to a quick bit featuring Ben Stiller and Benson Boone. “Instacart has your bananas,” the duo sang on stage in utter hilarity.
And now, the popular restaurant-delivery service is back in the spotlight after a rival company just announced a massive deal to acquire it.
On Thursday, October 29, DoorDash revealed that it will buy Instacart for approximately $17 billion.
“DoorDash and Instacart share a mission to help local businesses succeed,” DoorDash said in its recent news release. “Families turn to Instacart for the big weekly shop and to DoorDash for meals and nearly anything else they need from their neighborhood in under an hour. The combined company will offer grocers and retailers of every size DoorDash’s delivery network and Instacart’s grocery and fulfillment technology, in both apps and on stores’ own websites, along with the advertising and AI tools each company has built.”
“Grocery is one of the hardest things to get right online. Someone has to pick a ripe avocado, find a substitute you’d choose yourself, and get the ice cream to you before it melts,” Tony Xu, co-founder and CEO of DoorDash, said in a statement shared Thursday. “Instacart has spent years learning to do that well for grocers, while DoorDash has built a delivery network and technology that local stores rely on every day. Together, we could give stores of every size more of those tools and unlock the potential of grocery delivery.”
Here are the some of the benefits DoorDash expects from the acquisition:
Instacart customers could shop at more than 50,000 additional stores, on top of the nearly 100,000 stores on the Instacart platform today. DashPass and Instacart+ members would pay one membership fee instead of two. More orders for local businesses can create more earning opportunities, with more choice over when and how they earn.Hence then, the article about doordash is buying a rival restaurant delivery service for 17 billion was published today ( ) and is available on Parade ( Saudi Arabia ) The editorial team at PressBee has edited and verified it, and it may have been modified, fully republished, or quoted.
