Robot.com and Grubhub add autonomous delivery at 10 more campuses

Robot.com now operates on more than 20 campuses through Grubhub Campus. At Loyola Marymount, order volume grew nearly 70% quarter over quarter. DoorDash is buying Grubhub Campus Delivery for $300 million.

Why it matters for directors: Robot delivery can add retail revenue without adding staff. The DoorDash deal could also change campus delivery contracts.
