Hamburger chain Wendy’s Co. said Friday it is partnering with DoorDash to offer customers door-to-door delivery. “Rolling out delivery has quickly progressed, along with demand for convenience and delivery trends,” said Liz Geraghty, vice president of customer activation, in a statement. DoorDash will use thermal bags to keep food hot or cold. The two companies completed a pilot program earlier this year in Columbus, Ohio and Dallas, Texas, across 135 restaurants. Wendy’s shares were slightly higher premarket, and have gained 10% in 2017, while the S&P 500 has gained 18%.
