goPuff Continues Miami Growth with New Local Business Partnerships, Free Delivery Offer

MIAMI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–goPuff, a company delivering everyday essentials in minutes, has launched its fourth Miami-area facility just three months after making its debut in the city this April. To celebrate rapid expansion in the area, goPuff is offering an unprecedented deal: free delivery for the rest of the year!

Today, goPuff launched Miami-based Panther Coffee Roasters and Vegan Schmegan Bakery on its platform so customers can have some of their favorite local brands’ products delivered in minutes.

“We first entered the state of Florida just last year with our Tallahassee launch in February 2019 and quickly expanded to several cities within the state. Having launched to great reception in five other Floridian cities, we’ve been eager to launch in the state’s most populous city: Miami,” said Rafael Ilishayev, goPuff co-founder and co-CEO. “We are so excited to be delivering in Miami, bringing residents and visitors ultrafast access to everyday essentials, and look forward to continued growth in this great city.”
