McDonald's USA and Grubhub have partnered to grow the burger chain's so-called "McDelivery" to approximately 500 restaurants in and around the Big Apple. McDelivery will be available on the Grubhub marketplace and the company's New York brand called Seamless.

"The convenience of McDelivery has been available to our customers in the NYC and Tri-State area for the past two years," McDonald's Stamford Field Office Vice President Marcos Quesada, said in the release. "We are excited to add Seamless and Grubhub — leading delivery platforms in NYC — to our McDelivery service and to create more options for our customers to enjoy their favorite McDonald's menu items via McDelivery."

The Grubhub and McDonald's partnership will include a direct point-of-sale integration, using Grubhub's "Just in Time" technology that allows operators to sync order fulfillment with driver pickup. 

"We've been a part of New Yorkers' lives for over 20 years, and we know a beloved brand like McDonald's will be a welcome addition to our diners' daily options," Grubhub Head of Enterprise Seth Priebatsch, said in the release.

McDelivery launched in the U.S. in 2017, with partners including Uber Eats, and is expected to be a $4 billion business for both McDonald's and its franchise restaurants globally this year.
