FAVOR DELIVERY CELEBRATES 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY WITH GIVING CAMPAIGN TO DONATE 500,000 MEALS TO FEEDING TEXAS

AUSTIN, Texas, June 5, 2023 – Favor, the Texas-based on-demand delivery service, today announced its plan to honor its 10 year anniversary of serving communities across the Lone Star State by launching a giving campaign to donate up to 500,000 meals to Feeding Texas, the state's largest hunger-relief organization. Now through June 30, Favor will donate the equivalent of 10 meals to Feeding Texas for every delivery completed, giving customers an easy way to help fight hunger in Texas every time they use Favor. Feeding Texas consists of a network of 21 local member food banks across the state – with $2.50 equaling the cost of 10 meals for those in need, the total donation could amount to up to $125,000. 

"We are thrilled to mark a decade of delivering food from Texas’ favorite restaurants, stores and more across our home state," said Keith Duncan, Favor CEO. "As we celebrate this major milestone, it is essential for us to give back to the communities that have supported us throughout the past 10 years. With food delivery at the heart of our business and nearly 4 million Texans struggling with hunger and food insecurity, we are dedicated to making a meaningful impact on this critical issue in our communities.”

With a strong commitment to fighting hunger relief in the communities it serves, Favor’s contributions to Feeding Texas have totaled over 1.4 million meals since 2019.

"We are immensely grateful for Favor's commitment to fighting summer hunger in Texas. Their ongoing dedication to supporting Feeding Texas and our mission is truly commendable," said Celia Cole, CEO of Feeding Texas. "Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of countless individuals and families across the state this summer. We appreciate this partnership and look forward to the positive impact it will create."

Founded on June 5, 2013, in Austin, Texas, with just two employees and two Runners, Favor has grown its corporate team to over 400 employees, as well as its community of Runners – which has grown to over 100,000 contract delivery drivers who have completed over 70 million deliveries across more than 400 Texas cities. With tens of thousands of stores and restaurants on its platform, Favor has generated $1.2 billion in incremental sales for businesses across Texas to date. In 2017, Favor became the first U.S. on-demand delivery service to achieve profitability, and in 2018, Favor was acquired by Texas’ leading grocery retailer, H-E-B. As a wholly owned subsidiary, Favor continues to operate independently as a separate brand, while helping accelerate H-E-B’s path to becoming a digital retail industry leader in Texas.
