2 DoorDash History.
Meet Our Founders Our three founders met while attending Stanford University and came up with the idea of DoorDash while in a Palo Alto macaroon store. The store owner explained to them that she had many requests for delivery orders but no drivers to fulfill them. They decided to do something about it! They were students by day, and DoorDash delivery drivers by night The Road Here Andy Fang he/him/his Founder, Head of LaunchPad Tony Xu he/him/his Founder, CEO Stanley Tang he/him/his Founder, Head of DoorDash Labs.
