Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The partnership provides restaurants with a new channel to be discovered in consumers' living rooms. Restaurants will pay a standard pickup and delivery commission for using the service, which requires no new in-store hardware. This initiative targets the trend that 86% of Americans watch TV while eating delivery dinners.
