McDonald’s Corp. will expand delivery service to 1,000 more U.S. restaurants this week, including locations in the New York area, part of a gambit that the 77-year-old chain can find a major new source of growth.
The burger chain is relying on Uber Technologies Inc.’s UberEats to handle the “McDelivery” program, which is now available from more than 2,000 locations. Other cities getting the service this week include Dallas; Denver; Fresno, California; Houston; San Antonio; Seattle; and Washington. UberEats typically charges a booking fee -- say, $4.99 -- that can vary by location.
