Huge Addressable Market: The restaurant delivery business is a growing market. In 2019, $1.5 trillion was spent on food and beverages in the United States. Of that total $600.5 billion was spent at restaurants.
DoorDash is targeting the off-premise market of restaurants which was worth $302.6 billion in 2019.

Order Volume Growth: In fiscal 2019, DoorDash had 263 million orders placed, which was year-over-year growth of 217%.
In fiscal 2020, the company has had 543 million orders placed in the first nine months. The company saw 103 million, 204 million and 236 million orders placed for the first three months, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by a 217% increase in Total Orders to 263 million, which led to a 186% increase in Marketplace GOV to $8.0 billion
Financials: In fiscal 2019, DoorDash had revenue of $885 million, which grew from $291 million in fiscal 2018.
In the first nine months of 2020, DoorDash revenue was $1.9 billion, which was up from $587 million in the prior year’s comparable period.

Growth Plans: One of the ways DoorDash could grow is with its subscription program. The company offers Dash Pass at $9.99 a month offers unlimited deliveries for users. The company counts 5 million Dash Pass members now, which it expects to grow from the value it offers to consumers.
DoorDash said growth will come by adding more merchants, more consumers and having more consumer engagement.
